Tuba Time Warp

Tuba Time Warp During DST in Tuba City, AZ, it's possible to walk next door and enter a whole different time zone. The desert summers were already too friggin' hot.

Most Arizonans take exception to the Daylight Saving Time observed by the rest of America. Arizona tried DST for a year (1967), but decided the extra hour of daylight was not necessarily a good thing. But then there's the Navajo Rejection of the Arizona Exception: the northeast corner of Arizona is part of the Navajo Nation (which extends across three states) and in an effort to keep the same time

on the entire reservation, they observe DST. However, the Hopi Tribe doesn't agree with the Navajo DST decision. Yes, the Hopi Reservation, which is completely enclosed by the Navajo Nation, has declined DST... resulting in the Hopi Repudiation of the Navajo Rejection of the Arizona Exception. Finally, there's Tuba City, located in the western reaches of the Navajo Nation, just east of Arizona's palefaces, just west of the main Hopi Reservation and just north of the Hopi Reservation's exclave (not enclave) containing Moenkopi. Tuba City is caught between the Hopi and a hard place. Navajo tribal offices and schools in Tuba City observe DST, but most businesses don't ("so as not to confuse the tourists"). In Tuba City, it's possible to walk next door and enter a whole different time zone. https://snzltr.blogspot.com/search/label/264
