Helicopter Ride

Meteor Crater

Fifty-thousand years ago, a giant fireball streaked across the North American sky. It struck the Earth in northern Arizona, exploding with a force 150 times greater than the atomic bomb. Most likely broken from an asteroid, the huge iron-nickel meteorite struck the rocky plain, sending shock waves that devastated all in its path for a radius of several miles.

The result of this violent impact? The excavation of a giant bowl-shaped cavity. In seconds, a crater 700 feet deep, over 4,000 feet across and 2.4 miles in circumference was carved into the once-flat rocky plain.

The impact occurred during the last ice age when the plain was covered with a forest, and animals like mastodons, mammoths and giant ground sloths grazed. The force of the impact would have leveled the forest for miles around, but over time, the landscape recovered. When the ice age ended, the climate changed and dried. The desert you see now helped preserve the crater by limiting erosion. Today, H5 will fly you over this ancient wonder we call Meteor Crater & Barringer Space Museum.

Helicopter Ride

Monument Valley

Set within the Navajo Nation’s Tribal Park, the iconic landscapes of Monument Valley were made famous by Hollywood director John Ford in a series of great westerns. Timeless and visually spectacular, H5 flies you into one of the most remote, majestic — and photographed — places on earth.

Here, the sky is bigger and bluer than you’ve ever seen. And the great valley is vast, wild, and sunbaked, boasting sandstone masterpieces sculpted over time that tower at heights of 400 to 1,000 feet. These masterpieces are framed by scenic clouds that create an everchanging display of shadow and light on the desert floor. The landscape overwhelms, not just by its beauty but also by its size.

Spellbinding pinnacles of rock are surrounded by miles of mesas and buttes, windblown sand, shrubs, and trees, comprising the magnificent colors of the valley. H5 will fly you over and around this world-famous panorama of buttes, including the Mitten Buttes and Merrick Butte.

Helicopter Ride

Tombstone

Pass by iconic Picacho Peak and see the old airplane boneyard by Davis-Monthan Airforce Base as you fly to one of the Old West’s most infamous towns — Tombstone, Arizona.

You’ll feel like a part of history as you relive the epic gunfight at the O.K. Corral and stroll down the same streets as legends Wyatt Earp, Doc Holliday, and Ike Clanton. There are plenty of museums and famous landmarks to tour, plus a host of historic saloons, hotels, and authentic boutiques to visit. See Tombstone today and find out for yourself why this iconic city is called “The Town Too Tough to Die.”

While in Tombstone, be sure to stop in at The Bird Cage Theatre — a combination saloon, gambling parlor, theater, and brothel. In its heyday, it had a reputation of being one of the craziest places in Tombstone. In 1882, the New York Times said, “the Bird Cage Theatre is the wildest, wickedest night spot between Basin Street and the Barbary Coast.”

The Bird Cage Theater is now a popular tourist attraction and is one of the Old West’s most famous landmarks. The building still resembles its old self — with more than 120 bullet holes remaining in its structure. But before you visit, beware — The Bird Cage Theater is believed to be haunted and special ghost tours are available for those brave enough.

Helicopter Ride

Lake Powell

Few places on earth stop you in your tracks the way Lake Powell does. Carved by the Colorado River through millions of years of geology, this otherworldly landscape of towering sandstone cliffs, winding canyons, and shimmering blue water stretches across the Arizona-Utah border in one of nature’s most breathtaking displays.

H5 flies you deep into this remote wilderness for a front-row seat to some of the American Southwest's most dramatic scenery — including the Glen Canyon Dam, the iconic curves of Horseshoe Bend, and miles of Lake Powell's rugged shoreline and hidden tributaries. Low-level flight paths put you eye-level with canyon walls and give you angles on this landscape that no road or trail can offer.

The return to Scottsdale takes you through the stunning Painted Desert and over the iconic Meteor Crater impact site — making this one of the most scenically diverse and unforgettable flights H5 offers.
