A very complex area:
From http://ontimezone.com/exceptions.php:
Even though Arizona does not observe Daylight Saving Time, the Navajo
Indian Reservation (which takes up most of northeastern AZ) does
observe DST. To add to the confusion, the Hopi Indian Reservation,
which is wholly enclosed within the Navajo Reservation, does NOT
observe DST. Confused? We're just getting started.
* Consider also that the Navajos have an enclave containing the
village of Jeddito, entirely within the Hopi reservation. And that
the Hopi reservation has an exclave at Moenkopi, just south of Tuba
City. Still not confused?
* Some of the businesses in Tuba city (within the Navajo
Reservation) reportedly do not observe Daylight Saving time, so as to
avoid confusing the tourists. Good luck with that. At least that puts
them in sync with their Hopi neighbors across highway 160 in Moenkopi. Got it?
