Flagstaff at nearly 7000 feet elevation is surrounded by the largest contiguous ponderosa pine forest in the world creating serious wildfire risk. The 2022 Pipeline Fire and other recent fires have threatened the city. Paradoxically Flagstaff also faces severe winter storms with heavy snowfall despite its Arizona location. Northern Arizona University creates large institutional emergency planning requirements. Route 66 and I-40 create major transportation corridor emergency considerations.
