We ARE STILL OPEN. You can't keep a great place closed even tho the 2011 Monument Fire/Floods hit Beatty's Guest Ranch
& Orchard hard. We are even more of an Oasis for the Upper Miller Canyon Area and this should help to bring in more Rare Birds
in the years to come.
Things are getting better each day. Miller Canyon Road has been fixed, best shape in years and the Trails North to Clark Springs
have been repaired. Some new Trail Signs have replaced the burnt ones.
Miller Canyon Road/Trails will be affected by floods for years. Best to drive a High Clearance Vehicle if coming during the Monsoons.
Miller Canyon Trail, up Canyon, to the Spotted Owls etc. was washed out. However the pipeline work by the City of Tombstone has
fixed this most likely until the Monsoons. When washed out again, the trail will not be worked on for a couple of years, only people
that are good hikers should then do this hike.
We have bought a Tractor with backhoe to get our place in working order and it is helping a lot. For example:
On this side of Miller Creek, Cabin A and Unit B are available, but Unit C will be closed for sometime.
Units D/E/F are open, but will be harder to reach, because the creek bed is wider and deeper and the bridges were
washed away. They are closed down for Fall/Winter anyway, but will be open this Spring. The area around these
units were NOT BURNT, so D/E/F are still great to sit outside and enjoy nature. Our prices are great too..
We are a working Farm/Orchard at the above scenic location that has opened our 10 acres to the birding public
and because of this have received many nice emails from people that have stayed or watched Hummers
Hummingbird Viewing will be more controlled starting in 2012. We plan to have only 4-5 feeders in the Gazebo for the
Handicapped and the rest across Miller Creek at the CAS. The CAS will be mainly for Guests and NON-Guests that have
emailed ahead for a VISITOR'S LIABILITY RELEASE invoice. The CAS will be harder to reach and we must make
sure that all NON-Guests know this and are up to it. Feeders still will be at Units A and B.
We only want happy GUESTS. If a Rural setting reached by driving off the pavement is not your cup of tea, then
don't read any further.
We don't book tours of more than 8 people and limit them to 3 units. Please don't book part of your tour here and
the rest elsewhere! The coming and going of non-guest/guest touring members is just too much. If you do then
you CAN'T VISIT or STAY AGAIN!
The addition of an antenna booster to our wireless modem allows guests to receive wireless at the
Picnic Table
South of the Handicapped Only Viewing Area/Gazebo
and in Units B/C.

The following comments were taken from our DC to AC Inverter Manual:
PROBLEM LOAD
Rechargeable Devices: When first using a rechargeable device, monitor its
temperature for 10 minutes to ensure it does not become abnormally hot.
Excessive heat will indicate that it is incompatible with the inverter.
EQUIPMENT DAMAGE
Some products can be damaged when used with modified sine-wave power. If in
doubt, check with the product's manufacturer.
