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.
Today, the valley is filled with rustic cabins and elegant homes. There’s a vibrant community of people here, with an active social calendar. Some live here full-time, while others have second homes here.
Everyone loves it here. The community is great, with pancake breakfasts and other social events.
Snowmageddon 2019 – Day One
Get Ready – There’s A Snow Storm Coming
There’s a huge snow storm coming to Walker.
It looks like it will be between a foot and a half and two feet of snow.
I’ve been watching the forecasts and the amounts have been changing a bit, but it’s still going to be a lot of snow.
Get your supplies ready and hunker down, because it’s coming and you will be snowed in.
More Snow In Walker
On Monday, Feb 18th, we got a little less than a foot of snow out here in Walker.
It wasn’t enough to be very annoying, and the sun came out the next day.
It was very pretty and started to melt pretty quickly.
Road Work After The Rain
After the roads washed away from the rain, the county was on top of repairing everything that was damaged.
The were dumping truck loads of fresh dirt on the dirt part of Walker road and repairing the asphalt parts also.
I really appreciate how fast they were out here and how many trucks and equipment they used to get us back up and running.
Making It Rain On Valentines Day
Walker received just over an inch of rain on Valentines Day. It rained all day long, from the middle of the night before, through to the evening.
Lynx Creek was running strong, filled with all of the rain water run off, as well as the snow melt from the previous days.
There was a lot of water across Walker Road, enough to wash under the edge of it in one place, and push debris across the road in lots of other places.
Here are some photos from the next morning.

New Year’s Eve – 3 Inches of Snow
It started snowing this morning and is just stopping now, about 4:00pm.
I measured 3 inches out there on our deck railing.
The roads aren’t bad, but it is cold. If your pipes will ever freeze, now is the time.
Drive careful out there.
Time To Renew Your Trash Service
This week, Christmas had an impact on our trash collection service.
It wasn’t collected and the dumpsters are overflowing. As of right now, on Saturday morning, they still haven’t been emptied. See email below.
I’m sure they will be soon.
Update from Bill:
We’ve made a trip to the dump with the garbage that was on the ground. I’ve parked my white dump trailer across from the dumpsters. Please use the trailer if you have to leave your garbage before Best Pick shows up. I’ll try to watch and empty the trailer if it gets full.
Thanks, Bill, for taking care of […]
It’s Getting Cold Out There
Just a reminder that winter is upon us. The weather has gotten really cold this last week or so, and will be getting colder in the near future.
Make sure that your cabins have been winterized if you don’t live here full time.
Our neighbors came up for the weekend yesterday and found frozen pipes that plugged the water supply for the whole house. They had to run to a hardware store to buy heat tape to get the pipes unfrozen and water restored.
January is next week, so be ready.

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.
