The Sights and Sounds of Flagstaff  

There are plenty of things to do and places to go in Flagstaff. The city is home to one of the nation’s first astronomical research centers, Lowell Observatory. Hiking, horseback riding and skiing are favorite activities here. The Arizona Snowbowl, located at the top of the San Francisco Peaks, has a base elevation of 9,000 feet and exceeds the elevation of most other resorts in snow country. Skiers can experience a 2,300 foot vertical drop during the winter, and the chairlift offers a 6,450 foot long scenic ride in the summer. Music fans can take in a show at the Museum Club, a Depression era road house and the largest log cabin in the Southwest.

Flagstaff, Arizona: The City of Seven Wonders

Flagstaff is often referred to as the City of Seven Wonders, since it is situated in the Coconino National Forest and surrounded by the Grand Canyon, Sunset Crater National Monument, the San Francisco Peaks, Oak Creek Canyon, Walnut Canyon and Wupatki National Monument. The city sits in middle of the largest ponderosa pine forest in the country. The trees give off an aromatic scent that makes the entire city smell like vanilla.
