Flagstaff is a town in Northern Arizona. It has a population of approximately 75,000. It is also home to Northern Arizona University. It is at an elevation of 7,000'.

That's over half as high again as the highest point in Britain (Ben Nevis mountain)  Quite a busy town too, judging from the video.  Nice job

Very nicely done Steve.    I passed through Flagstaff on vacation about 5 years ago.  Nice location and very friendly people.  One of the things that stuck with me in talking to some of the residents was the extremes in day and night temperatures.  

Amazing video

Thank you. It's a tourist town in the summer. We do have a small ski resort also which, in a big snow year like this past winter, can get busy.

Right now we are having a heat wave. Temps are in the mid nineties, and lows are mid fifties.

Wasn't there a bid to host the 1960 winter Olympics there?

I am not sure, but the ski resort is relatively small.

I think I read it somewhere, but they eventually went somewhere else (Squaw Valley California? )

Nicely done.

Heat wave here in Florida also but not with the extreme difference in day and night temps.  

Stay cool, if you can, and hope you have a great week.

It's nice to see Flagstaff again.
I was hoping you'd fly over the town though.
