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?
