I Looked at All 108 Pages of BugGuide Caterpillars and Elsewhere -
Panthea gigantea
Prescott, Yavapai County, Arizona, USA
September 10, 2006
Size: 1 3/4 inches
And found no match. This image kinda shows the black "collar" and the orange tissue on either side of it.

Another thought from the caterpillar team
would be something near Panthea. Do you have any of those down there?

You May Be On Track
Panthea
isn't very common here and in any case, there doesn't seem to be much information.
P. gigantea
is most widespread but I could find no larva images.
P. apanthea
has a record in northern Arizona but seems to be very rare.
P. judyae
and
P. greyi
seem to occur in SE Arizona.

Wonder if it might be a freshly molted Halysidota
They have this general appearance, though we don't know which one would be so brown
