    Default Spring break in Flagstaff/Sedona -- trail/activity suggestions?



    I'm headed to Flagstaff/Sedona for spring break with my boys in 2.5 weeks and looking for first-hand suggestions on things to do in the area. I've been doing my research in the interwebs, have the Funtreks guide to Arizona, and the Backcountry Adventures Arizona book.

    I'll be there for four full days with a day on each end to get there and back. Not sure what to expect with regard to weather and trail conditions. Looks like average temps in the low-70s in Sedona but Flagstaff is mid-50s. Sedona looks like an Artsy-touristy-resort town with expensive hotels so we'll be staying in Flagstaff.

    So far, I've got these on my list,

    - Meteor Crator & Petrified National Forest
    - Day trip to Grand Canyon
    - Rent mountain bikes for a half-day and ride somewhere (suggestions?), Oak Creek Canyon, and Slide Rock
    - Evening at Lowell Observatory
    - Sedona - Broken Arrow and Soldier's Pass trails. Maybe Outlaw Trail with a side-trip to Honanki Ruins if there's time

    Any "must do" things I'm missing?

    Sunset Crater Volcano and Wupatki National Monuments must see. There are also some really neat cliff dwellings in the flagstaff area.

    I'll be in that area this summer so I'll be watching with interest.

    grew up in Flagstaff....Go to the Snow Bowl and ride the lift to the top...then there are hiking trails all over with 360 views... 4 wheelin out at the cinder hills(close to Sunset Crater)those are always fun. Also the Sedona area is neat and do go but an Artsy Fartsy place...
