Volume

5

As we celebrate

five years of highlighting the people and places that make

Phoenix and Scottsdale shine, we honor the visionaries who have shaped the Valley into a place of possibility — those who built, created, and pursued their passions, leaving a lasting mark on Arizona’s story.

As we spotlight the stories behind exceptional local businesses, this year we turn our attention to the grit, creativity, and relationships that drive their success. From long-standing family legacies to bold new ventures, each reflects the entrepreneurial spirit that runs deep here in the heart of the desert.

Scorpion Gulch, built in the 1930s as a home and trading post at the base of South Mountain, stands as a quiet testament to that same pioneering spirit — a blend of frontier resilience and craftsmanship. It reminds us of those who saw beauty and opportunity in the desert and made it their own.

May these pages inspire you to explore, support, and connect with the innovators shaping our community — and perhaps write a new chapter of your own in the ever-evolving story of State 48.
