Steve was asking about temps at Canon de Chelly.  At an altitude of
5500-7000 feet it shouldn't be Phoenix hot.  Avge daytime highs in June-July
run 89-92 degrees F.  But that's just the average so it could be hotter.

Tina was asking about nighttime temps at 12,000 ft.  My backyard mountain
(Sandia Crest) here in NM is ~11,000 ft.  Up there you could expect maybe
40-45 degrees F at night, this time of year.  It's typically around 20
degrees cooler than here in town at 5,000 ft.  So add another 1,000 feet and
take off another 3-5 degrees.  Br-r-r-r!

Hope this helps.  I envy you both.
