Interesting tidbits about Snowflake Arizona from The Town of Snowflake.
Snowflake, founded in 1878 by Mormon pioneers, perches on the northern flank of Arizona's White Mountains. Nestled next to the ever-flowing Silver Creek, the Snowflake valley was populated by Ancestral Puebloan Indians for several thousand years. Their petroglyphs and kiva ruins are scattered among the scented juniper and sagebrush mesas.
The Town of Snowflake is the northernmost community in the White Mountains, set among sweeping plains at an elevation of 5,600 feet. Contrary to its name, the community enjoys mild climate year-round, shielded from harsh winters by the White Mountains to the south.
Snowflake was founded in 1878 by Mormon land agent William Flake, and together in honor of Apostle Erastus Snow, the settlement became known as Snowflake. Much of the rich pioneer tradition lives on in Snowflake, and the community hosts a city walking tour that features the homes of the original 19th century settlers.
The recently completed Mormon Temple sits atop the hillside overlooking the community, only one of two such temples in Arizona. The temple services the 35,000 members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints (LDS) whose home is in northeastern Arizona.
Home to Arizona's only pulp and paper mill, the community's dominant industries include pulp mill support industries, ranching, and agricultural products. The industrial park has recently been expanded to include a new 100-acre hydroponics plant, one of the largest in the southwest.
With Snowflakes strengths: strong family values, a tightly-knit community, rich cultural history, mild climate, and exceptional housing and recreational opportunities---it's no wonder why Snowflake is one of the fastest growing communities in northeastern Arizona.
A pleasant 3-hour drive from Phoenix or Tucson, or 2 hour drive from Flagstaff, you'll find that the relaxed lifestyle of Snowflake, the friendly community, and the diverse recreational opportunities make Snowflake an ideal location to visit.
