the assembly location at 9:00am (UT time). 10 minute debate with friends follows. Finally I go check with a vendor who's from UT. Yup, AZ time is an hour earlier, we need to be checked out and on the road by 7:30am Sunday morning.

Sunday night in Moenkopi on the Hopi reservation - they follow AZ time - cross the highway for dinner in Tuba City (in the Navajo nation)...they don't. Soooo confused!

- Many people live in Hopi and work across the road in Navajo. They have to keep it straight all summer. -- nm - MojaveMeg Sep 5, 08:27
