Posted by Webmaster on April 18th, 2009Wickenburg-based Flying M Air, a helicopter tour and charter company, is featured in the May 2009 issue of Arizona Highways magazine. The 10-page article, “A Better View,” was written by Keridwen Cornelius and features amazing aerial photography by Adriel Heisey.
Flying M Air has been based at Wickenburg airport since the company started business in 2001, when it began offering helicopter rides and tours in a two-seat Robinson R22 helicopter. In those days, most business was local, for aerial photography and survey work. The little helicopter also appeared at several outdoor events to offer inexpensive, short helicopter rides.
In 2005, the company took …

Posted by Maria Langer on April 13th, 2009A restaurant review.
I should start off by saying that I don’t review every restaurant in town. I only review the ones I have a lot of positive things to say about. Ones that I recommend. Ones that I eat in.
And the folks in Wickenburg are very lucky to have a new restaurant in town: Nana’s Sandwich Saloon.
I heard about Nana’s late last month. It had moved into the space formerly occupied by the Cornerstone Bookstore on North Tegner Street, right downtown. While the Cornerstone also offered a limited menu of lunch items, its bookstore atmosphere wasn’t exactly conducive to a friendly …

Posted by Allan Hall on August 8th, 2007I sent this “letter to the editor” to the Wickenburg Sun on July 25th, after reading Mr. Cloe’s editorial about local shopping. He has not posted my article in the past two weeks, and I suspect that he never will. Can’t say that I’m surprised.
Here’s the letter:
Mr. Cloe:
I find your editorial submission “Responses to ‘shop local’ offer an interesting variety” to be interesting but predictable, considering the source.
What really strikes me is that, contained within your paper this week is a six page advertising section for Albertsons, a grocery chain that is not even located in Wickenburg.
They are, however, …

Posted by Ann McDermott on June 22nd, 2007Looking for a Family or Group Summer Outing?
Date Creek is your answer. The ranch is located along beautiful Date Creek, a riparian oasis within the Joshua tree-studded desert bisected by Highway 93 as it heads north from Wickenburg to Kingman.
Historically, Date Creek served as a resting spot on the roadway from Prescott, territorial capital, to population centers developing in the Phoenix valley and the Old Pueblo of Tucson. A reminder of the importance of this route is the protective presence of Date Creek Fort, a military outpost, the remains of which are several miles away from Date Creek Ranch. …

Posted by Maria Langer on November 28th, 2006Brett Gerasim at the Old Livery Mercantile on North Tegner has been working on an interactive map of Wickenburg’s downtown businesses. He was kind enough to send me a link to the resulting page: http://www.oldlivery.com/wickenburgmap.htm.
The map is pretty simple and works with the Google Map API. It clearly shows the locations — including addresses — for some popular holiday shopping spots. I’ll be putting a link to this map in

Posted by Maria Langer on October 10th, 2006This past weekend marked the season opening at Rancho de los Caballeros, Wickenburg premiere guest ranch. This is a very special time of year for me, because when the ranch opens, its restaurant also opens. The restaurant at los Caballeros is my favorite one in town.
My husband Mike and I wasted no time visiting Los Caballeros for a meal. We stopped in for Sunday Brunch, which is offered on Sundays from 12 to 2 PM. A buffet spread that includes salads, sliced meats and cheeses, two hot entrees, and desserts is set up in a sunny room overlooking the pool, between …
