Flagstaff, AZ
Walnut Canyon National Monument
Walnut Canyon contains over 80 cliff dwelling rooms built by the Sinagua people around 1100-1250 CE within the limestone walls of a 400-foot-deep canyon. The monument sits east of Flagstaff in ponderosa pine forest and benefits from the city's dark sky protections. The canyon rim provides dramatic views of the forested canyon with ancient dwellings visible in alcoves along the cliff faces.
