Welcome to Walker Community!
Located in the Bradshaw Mountains, south of Prescott, AZ, Walker Community is an old mining district, filled with history. It’s named after Joseph Walker, mountain man, explorer, and guide. He led a party to this valley to discover gold in the summer of 1863.

DC-10 Dropping Red
About 7:15pm this evening, I was standing on my deck, as I watched a DC-10 fly along the Mt. Union ridge and drop a load of the red foam. It was an amazing sight. Of course, I got no photos.
The smoke seemed to be reduced significantly after that drop. The plane kept flying east and south, I assume towards Phoenix. No big revelation, but I was encouraged, so I thought I’d share.

Always Helpful
After working with him, I was pleasantly surprised, of his dedication, kindness, & wiliness to go beyond required necessities.
He was always checking to see if everything was OK. He was willing to work with me in any situation that would arise.
He was always helpful. He gave me advice on ways of making property more sellable.
I'm thankful for all the help he gave me in the transition period.
I would definitely recommend Conrad Walton to sell my property again.
