    Title: Museum of Northern Arizona Photo Archives – Crafts and Arts Prints Dates: 1930s-1990s Extent: 2802 images Name of Creator(s): Museum of Northern Arizona staff including Leland Abel, John Adair, E. Capps, Harold S. Colton, S. Cooper, Robert Fronske, Marc Gaede, Parker Hamilton, Lyndon L. Hargrave, Neil Judd, A.J. "Lex" Lindsay, P. Long, M. Middleton, T. Nichols, L. W. Smith, C. Turner, W.M. Wells, and Barton Wright. Organizational History: In 1959, the Photography Department and position of Photographer created by director Dr. E. B. Danson, with Parker Hamilton as MNA’s first Assistant in Photography, later that year promoted to Photographer. Prior to 1959, the photo archives were a part of the Publications Department but not under the management of a photographer. In 1960, a large-scale cataloging initiative of new and old prints, negatives, and slides was undertaken. A photography studio and cataloging room was established in Fleischman Hall (now Schaeffer) in 1965. An inventory was made of negatives in June 1969 which noted missing negatives. By the early 1980s the Photography Department became the Photo Archives, reflecting a shift in focus from active photography to preservation of and access to existing materials. An inventory of negatives was done again in February 1988 with notes made of missing negatives. The Photo Archives moved to the Library in 1995. In 2005, the Photo Archives ceased operation as a department, and staff photography became the responsibility of the Marketing Department while the care of materials and use requests were the responsibility of the Library staff. The Photo Archives were made the responsibility of the Archivist in 2008.

    Prehistoric Sites -- Elden Pueblo CONTRIBUTOR: Walter Gosart - AAS Northern Arizona Chapter LOCATION: Just minutes from downtown Flagstaff, you will find Elden Pueblo on the west side of Hwy 89.

In 1926 Dr., Jesse Walter Fewkes, a famous archaeologist with the Smithsonian Institution in Washington DC, excavated and stabilized portions of Elden Pueblo. He hoped to turn the site into a national monument when work was completed. Plans for the monument fell through, but that did not stop people from visiting the site and sharing in its excitement.

    Celebrate Archaeology Month! Remember, when visiting archaeological site, take only pictures and leave only footprints. These special places are fragile traces of the past. Native Americans who live in the area have ancestral connections to these areas. Scientists and Native Americans alike can learn much about an untold history of the area based on the locations of structures and artifacts. Removing artifacts and damaging cultural sites is against the law and ruins the experience for future generations to enjoy. Walnut Canyon National Monument: Activity: Visit Walnut Canyon.

  • Flagstaff Visitor Study 2017-2018
    Acknowledgements The authors would like to recognize all the people who helped to make this study possible. First, thanks go to the Flagstaff Convention & Visitors Bureau, which has been an advocate of tourism research to inform its marketing and promotion efforts. In particular, we want to thank Trace Ward, Flagstaff CVB Director, and Lori Pappas, Marketing and Public Relations Manager, for their support and participation in the project. Without the support of everyone at the CVB, this critical market research project would not have been possible. Thanks also go to Kari Roberg, Research Manager and Colleen Floyd, Director of Research at the Arizona Office of Tourism without whose help this project would also not have been possible. We want to acknowledge the help of many individuals in the Flagstaff tourism community who were key to the success of this project, including: • Little America Hotel – Susan Jennings • Flagstaff Visitor Center – Anna Good • Museum of Northern Arizona – Suzanne Shenton • Flagstaff Extreme – Rachel Buzzard • Lowell Observatory – Molly Baker • Best Western Pony Soldier Inn & Suites – Scott Grams and Mark Ross • Residence Inn by Marriott Downtown – Misty Medina • DoubleTree by Hilton Flagstaff – Belen Mendez • GreenTree Inn – Frank Benitez • The Weatherford – Klaudia Ness The dedicated staff at these locations contacted visitors, asked them to complete the survey, and collected responses. It was through their efforts that this project achieved the sample sizes needed. Finally, we extend a special thank you to all those who visited Flagstaff and agreed to share information about their experiences. Without their willingness to participate in the survey process, this report simply would not have been possible.

  • Chapter 3. Management Areas
    Chapter 3. Management Areas Introduction to Management Areas Management areas are areas that have similar management intent and a common management strategy that are more specific than forestwide guidance provided in Chapter 2. This direction does not substitute for or repeat forestwide direction, but rather provides additional direction for the applicable area. In the event that a plan decision in this section and the forestwide component in another section conflict, the more restrictive plan decision generally prevails. A project or activity-level evaluation, however, may be required to resolve the conflict; generally, however, the more restrictive plan decision prevails. Some management areas are special areas that have been designated by Congress or an office of the Executive Branch. They are managed to protect the special features or character for which they were designated and must be managed in accordance with relevant law, regulation, and policy and any area- specific management plan, such as the Verde River Comprehensive River Management Plan. Because of the complication of carrying forward direction from the previous forest plan there are two management areas that overlay the Sedona-Oak Creek Management Area (MA). The Oak Creek Canyon and House Mountain-Lowlands MAs are both subject to direction for the Sedona-Oak Creek MA and have unique direction that applies only to these overlay areas. In addition, there are several guidelines in the Sedona-Oak Creek MA to which the House Mountain-Lowlands MA is an exception. Scenery desired conditions (desired landscape character) for wilderness and wild and scenic rivers is described in the MA direction. For other management areas, see the Landscape Character Zones for this direction.
