Noble and charismatic, Ponderosas welcome visitors with a butterscotch aroma.

  • Fire-resistant species whose very thick, plately orange bark protects it at maturity
  • Its bark grows thicker and more furrowed as it ages
  • Can live to be 400 to 600 years old
  • Has a symbiotic relationship with Abert squirrels: squirrels dig up truffles and spread spores; ponderosa need the fungus spores to make nitrogen and other important nutrients that are unavailable to the roots alone
  • Its bark has an amazing vanilla/butterscotch aroma that permeates the air on warm days

  • Hike an easy path to reach this ridge – and some of the tallest ponderosas in the US
  • Explore trails along the forest edge and preserved meadow habitat
  • Take in views of the famous San Francisco peaks with Larkspur Meadow below you

An immersive wilderness experience, Ponderosa Ridge is reachable by an easy hike through the meadow below. Trails along the edge of the forest ensure that the meadow habitat is preserved and remains as undisturbed as possible.

Flagstaff is well known for being home to the largest pure stand of ponderosa pine in the country — and Ponderosa Ridge features a towering grove of these pines that is worthy of this prestige.
