Colorado City, Arizona and Hildale, Utah are two towns located on the Utah-Arizona border. This area is known for several things: its beauty, isolation, and being home to a polygamist cult.
The area was dominated by the Fundamentalist Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints, a fundamentalist Mormon sect which practiced polygamy. Its leader, Warren Jeffs, had absolute power over church members until he was arrested in 2007 and convicted in 2011 of two counts of sexual assault against a child. Warren Jeffs reportedly continues to lead the cult from prison.

I rate Colorado City's climate a C-. It's pretty dry overall, and has large diurnal ranges resulting in late spring freezes, which I'm not a fan of. Summer and winter are pretty hot and cold but nothing too extreme. But there are far worse climates out there.
As for the FLDS?
Z-, fucken!
