NPS - Flagstaff Area National Monuments Overview
Wupatki, Sunset Crater Volcano, and Walnut Canyon National Monuments are managed collectively as the Flagstaff Area National Monuments. Together, they protect more than 40,000 acres and 3,000 archeological sites, in a landscape of expansive high deserts, canyons, mountains, mesas, and volcanic features.
Look up at Sunset Crater’s cinder cone, down into Walnut Canyon, and out across the Wupatki grasslands to the Painted Desert. How are they connected?
At all three monuments, the earth’s geologic past lies exposed, shaped by the violence of volcanic eruptions and by the slow erosion of older rock layers. Within canyon walls and in broad scenic vistas, catch glimpses of the distant past, of ancient seas and sand dunes, and of plants and animals that have adapted to live here today.
When Sunset Crater Volcano erupted less than 1000 years ago, there were people here to see it. The event changed their lives and influenced settlement at Wupatki and throughout the region.
The pueblos of Wupatki and the cliff homes of Walnut Canyon contain information that fuels archeological theories and confirms the stories and traditions of present day American Indian peoples, who still have strong ties to these places. Visit these sites and experience something of the lives of people here before us—their migrations, living conditions, conflicts, cooperation, ingenuity, achievements, and failings.
Preserving and protecting these landscapes, with their variety of natural and cultural components, saves information for future generations.
TTAP Flagstaff Area National Monuments Individual Placements Overview:
The Individual Placement will function as a member of the Cultural Resources team and the Facility Maintenance Division. As part of these teams, they will gain experience in archeological field activities (preservation maintenance and archeological site condition assessments) as well as site record management and report writing. They will also gain experience in trade skills associated with trails, roads, and historic structure maintenance. As a result of working on these teams, the interns will be a part of preserving deteriorating archeological sites, and ensuring visitors have access to experiencing these resources.
The Individual Placement will assist in maintaining several miles of trails, including increasing accessible access to sites and overlooks. They will also be helping with invasive species management and maintaining native landscapes. The archeological sites they will be preserving are at increased risk to deterioration due to climate change.
The Individual Placement will work alongside NPS staff from multiple divisions including: Cultural Resources, Natural Resources, Trail Maintenance, and Buildings and Utilities. We also work alongside the Maintenance Action Team (MAT) located here in Flagstaff, and the interns will have the opportunity to work alongside them during a project at our park as well as travel with them work on different projects at other parks. These experiences will provide an opportunity to network with people from other work divisions and parks that perform preservation maintenance. The supervisors will hold biweekly meetings with the interns for coaching and mentoring. The interns will also have the opportunity to shadow the supervisors to learn more about NPS careers. FLAG will also provide a resume writing and USAJobs application workshop.
