April In Northern Arizona

We live an hour northeast of San Francisco (Napa), and have done trips to Arizona in April. Things can get a little chilly at night in northern Arizona depending on your elevation. Canyon de Chelly often drops into the 30s at night in April and could easily go lower (it can also get really warm!). Lower humidity can mean wider variations in temperature. Overall, we generally *love* going to Arizona in April. Bring some warm clothes, use your furnace (or a heater/campfire if you don't have one), and have a great trip!
 
As someone who prefers the shoulder seasons rather than summer, I too purchased a ceramic heater. Depending upon where and when I go, as well as the weather forecast, I may seek out a site with power (or not). The beauty of camping then is that you usually have a choice of places to stay. My $30 Vornado supplies more than enough heat for those conditions.

Can't speak from personal experience, but there have been some on this forum who have used hot water bottles in place of heaters when electric wasn't available. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00XPSRYH...pY2tSZWRpcmVjdCZkb05vdExvZ0NsaWNrPXRydWU&th=1

I’ve done that many times before I bought my CI. It works great. At home I sleep upstairs and have the heat turned off and it can drop down to the 50’s. I use a large electric cat pad because I can sleep on it and not have it over me. My hips ache at night if they get cold.
