Mount Elden

Mount Elden or Elden Mountain is an extinct lava dome located in central Coconino County northeast of Flagstaff, Arizona. The mountain is named after John Elden, one of the region's earliest Anglo settlers, who established a homestead on its lower slopes and grazed sheep on the open grasslands below during the late 19th century. Its exposed, rocky slopes are a prominent feature visible from almost any point in Flagstaff, rising steeply by nearly 2,400 feet to reach an elevation of 9,301 feet.
