FLAGSTAFF — The cooler low temps at 7000 feet range from the mid-50s to the mid-80s and this may have you thinking twice about including a sweatshirt or light jacket when traveling north to Flagstaff. Whether it’s an outdoor stroll, scenic chair ride or patio dining, the weather is enviable and Flagstaff is ready for you.
Flagstaff area attractions are open and operating on a regular schedule for all to explore. Discover the Museum of Northern Arizona, Arizona Snowbowl, Lowell Observatory, Riordan Mansion State Historic Park, Pioneer Museum, the Arboretum at Flagstaff as well as national monuments: Sunset Crater Volcano National Monument, Walnut Canyon National Monument and Wupatki National Monument.
“Thank you firefighters for protecting our beautiful mountain town and managing the Museum Fire. Flagstaff is about people, culture, art and nature coming together and while fire operations continue, Flagstaff encourages visitors to stay and enjoy Flagstaff’s businesses, attractions, hotels and restaurants, said Trace Ward Convention and Visitors Bureau Director.”
