A sign that Arizona ecotourism is less popular than usual this year.

Aravaipa Canyon permits, especially for the west entrance, usually come very close to selling out on the weekends and sometimes even on weekdays. This year only 25 September and 2 October

Could it be that the (probably incorrect) that SB 1070 will actually be widely oppressive (as opposed to symbolic, a nuisance, and a sure-win lottery ticket for the few it affects) is keeping eco-tourists away?
