Golf in Snowflake

Snowflake is a community in Navajo County on the Colorado Plateau of eastern Arizona at roughly 5,600 feet elevation, in the semi-arid high-plateau terrain of the region. The community was settled by Mormon pioneers in the late nineteenth century, with its name deriving from two of the early settlers: Erastus Snow and William Jordan Flake. Snowflake and adjacent Taylor together form a twin-community area in Navajo County, with a heritage of agricultural and ranching activity in the plateau terrain.
