Flagstaff grew up from a small settlement to the town of in excess of fifty thousand inhabitants today during the last hundred years or so. The arrival of the Atlantic and Pacific Railroad saw off any hopes the town might have had of remaining obscure. The railroad (later becoming the Santa Fe) brought workers through and to town from the Coconino Forest where the main local industry of timber originated. Today, timber continues to provide a great source of economic value to the region as well as sheep farming and tourism.
Visitors to Flagstaff generally enjoy the outdoors activities on offer. Every visit should include a trip to the Coconino National Forest and to marvel at the supremity of the 11,000ft San Francisco Peaks. Of course a trip to the Grand Canyon should be included as it is only next door as well as a tour of the early cliff dwellings of Walnut Canyon. Lowell Observatory is also situated in Flagstaff and is famous for revealing the existence of the planet Pluto back in 1930.
