I'll play...
I'm posting 4 pics; all are in the same region of the same country. I'm looking for the region and the country. Bonus points for either of the 2 cities pictured, or the 2 local sub-regions pictured. Photos taken in late-November & early-December...

Spain. Andalusia? I'm basing my guess on the white village in the 4th pic.

You nailed it Brian!
1st pic is Cordoba.
2nd pic are Los Frailes, viewed from La Isleta del Moro, Cabo de Gata (
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cabo_De_Gata
)
3rd pic is Seville.
4th pic is the village of Capileira in the Alpujarras region (
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alpujarras
)
You're up!

It looks a lot like Hwy 93 that leads NW out of Phoenix and ends up at I-40 near Kingman, AZ.
Or... it could be Hwy 60 that leads ENE out of Phoenix passing the mining town of Globe, AZ.

I was hoping for the name of the canyon. Hwy 60 passes through it about 40 miles North of Globe, AZ.

I can't recall the name of the canyon... I drove Hwy 60 from Phoenix through Globe and Show Low on my way back home a few years ago. Beautiful drive through a lot of different eco-zones. Anything from desert to pine forests as we got closer to Show Low.

I'll pass to you. It is Salt River Canyon.
