If you are driving on I-40, the exit to take
in Flagstaff for eating, sleeping and refueling is exit 195 (Interstate
17 exit). This starts off as Milton Road (the I-17 Interstate terminated here
at I-40), then makes a sharp right turn and become Santa Fe Avenue. Just
northeast of town you have a well-marked access road to return you to
I-40. All very convenient.
Touring Note: If you
are westbound on I-40 and wish to view the Grand Canyon from the South
Rim, take exit 201 and follow US-89 to Cameron. Turn left and follow AZ-64
to the Canyon rim. On the way you’ll pass by Sunset Crater Volcano
National Monument, Wupatki National Monument and, shortly after you turn
onto AZ-64, the Little Colorado Gorge. That tall mountain to the west of
US-89 just north of Flagstaff is Humphreys Peak that, at 12,663 feet, is
the highest mountain in Arizona.
