]]> 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.

4. Great Pinecone Drop

The holiday season culminates with the Great Pinecone Drop on New Years Eve in 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.
