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.
