    A rock climbing geology student travels to the Nevada high desert to do research, where a career-defining fossil discovery and an unexpected friendship with a young cattle rancher force her to reevaluate her path.

    After a devastating betrayal, Alex, a geology student, flees to the Mojave Desert to do research and go rock climbing. But she can’t escape her thesis advisor, Petro, who tries to control her from afar.

    There she meets another desert dweller, Nick, a young cowboy who lives with his father, Everett, on a struggling cattle ranch. They become friends, bonding over climbing and the challenges of desert life. But then Alex’s research takes off — prompting Petro to demand she return to publish — just as a mistake she makes as an outsider threatens the ranchers’ livelihood.

    Alex must decide what matters more: a self-interested choice of a safe path toward a successful career, or doing what’s right to support a friend and diving into the unknown.

    City Council Weighs ATV Ban Ordinance Proposal
    By Tommy Acosta
    The Sedona City Council at its May 23, 2023 meeting took no action on a proposed ordinance that would ban all off-road vehicles from being driven on state-owned public roads or streets owned by the city. The ordinance, spearheaded by Sedona Mayor Scott Jablow on the premise that such vehicles pose a risk to the health, safety and welfare of the community, would impose heavy fines to anyone driving the ATVs or OHVs on city streets, including S.R. 179 and S.R. 89A. ATV rental companies have admitted that such vehicles are not intended or designed to be driven on paved roads, yet, in Arizona, they are allowed to do so under Arizona Revised Statute 28-1174 (4B). Opponents against the ordinance argued at the meeting that if adopted the ban would cripple the ATV rental industry in Sedona and cause much hardship to the owners and employees, as it would effectively, as written, destroy their livelihood.
