]]> Christmas is only a week away! There’s snow on the ground, gifts being wrapped and Christmas lights are lighting up the dark sky city. There are so many great holiday events underway already so it’s certainly hard not to get excited about Christmas. Flagstaff around this time of year could certainly be a home away from home for dear ol’ Santa. So in that spirit, we’ve put together a short list of reasons why Flagstaff is the best place in Arizona to spend your Christmas – and it’s even better if you live here!

1. Flagstaff is a Winter Wonderland

For most Arizonans, the traditional idea of Christmas doesn’t really ever come to fruition. There’s no (real) snow and no need for fireplaces, just a slightly chillier than usual desert landscape. This year not only did Flagstaff just get a solid dusting of snow, the weather forecast is predicting a snowy Christmas Eve and Christmas day! Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow!

2. Pine (Christmas) Trees all Around

There’s no more iconic symbol for Christmas than the Christmas tree. Flagstaff just so happens to have them growing in quite a few of our front and back yards! We’re surrounded by tall, beautiful trees all around here in Flagstaff. It just so happens that we are located in the world’s largest contiguous ponderosa pine forest! It’s like we’re preparing for the holidays all year round!

3. All the Events You can Handle!

We discussed it in our last article about Flagstaff, but here are just a few of the awesome events happening in Flagstaff to celebrate the holiday season: The North Pole Experience, Sleigh Rides, The Great Pinecone Drop, winter sports at Arizona Snowbowl, Riordan Mansion holiday tours, Holiday Skies at Lowell Observatory, Holiday Lights Parade in Historic Downtown, Flagstaff Festival of Trees, and so much more!

]]> Flagstaff is like a completely different world compared to most of Arizona. We have beautiful seasons, snowy winter weather, trees as far as the eye can see and a tight knit local community. All of these reasons and more are why flocks of Phoenicians, Californians and others make their way up the hill to join us locals in enjoying this magical time of year. Owning Flagstaff real estate means you always are first in line for all the great activities and festivities all year round. Check out this list of awesome things to do in Flagstaff in the heart of this holiday season. There’s plenty for both the adults and the whole family to enjoy!

1. Arizona Snowbowl

Just outside of Flagstaff is the attraction that brings most desert-dwellers up to Flagstaff: Arizona Snowbowl. This Flagstaff ski resort is located at a jaw-dropping 9,500 feet in altitude. This resort is great for the beginner and skilled skier or snowboarder alike, with 40 runs, almost 800 skiable acres and 7 chair lifts. Snowbowl is open now, to check snow conditions visit arizonasnowbowl.com.

2. The North Pole Experience

Bring the family to visit Santa’s 400 year old workshop! The North Pole Experience is open to the public daily until December 28th. Take off from Santa’s Trolly Launch Station at Little America Hotel and visit Santa’s toy factory, Elf University, Mrs. Claus’ bakery, Santa’s sleigh hanger and then get photos with Santa Claus himself!

4. Great Pinecone Drop

The holiday season culminates with the Great Pinecone Drop on New Years Eve in downtown Flagstaff. The 6 ft tall LED lighted pinecone is suspended and lowered from the top of the famous Weatherford Hotel in the center of downtown Flagstaff. This free event will feature two lowerings, one early lowering at 10PM for the young ones, and again at midnight December 31st.

5. Dew Downtown

The high octane Ski and Snowboard Festival sponsored by Mountain Dew takes over the steep San Francisco street each year. Snow will cover the street downtown and competitors will navigate jumps and obstacles. Free to spectate! This awesome winter event takes place January 30th – 31st. Visit dewdowntownflagstaff.com for more information or to register to shred, grind and jump your way down downtown Flagstaff.
