The Flagstaff area has been witness to a cavalcade of human presence, from southwestern prehistory to the historic period our area has been a crossroad for people getting from one place to the next. Springs and water sources can be found within a days travel and if a line is drawn between them on a map we can be sure that other human beings had done the same in the form of trails. A trail is a reflection of our lives as human beings and it can take a turn into the past, the present and perhaps the future. Such as the following story of Marcos Farfan and his fellow adventurers who found a path near our town.
