At 7,000 feet of elevation and surrounded by the largest Ponderosa Pine forest in America, Flagstaff is notably cooler than southern Arizona. The town sits just a few miles from Mt. Humphreys, a 12,000-foot peak that gets as much snow each winter as Colorado ski resorts. Just 90 minutes away is the Grand Canyon, making a day trip possible. Another possibility is Sedona, about 45 minutes away.
The main meetings hotel in Flagstaff is the 247-room Little America Hotel. There’s 13,000 square feet of indoor meeting and reception space plus a 5,000-square-foot event lawn with a covered stage.
