Description
Mount Elden and Little Elden are named for John Elden, one of the region's earliest Anglo settlers. Elden and his family established a homestead on the mountain's lower slopes and, during the late 19th century, grazed sheep on the open grasslands below the mountain. The mountain's exposed, rocky slopes are a dominant feature from almost any part of the surrounding area. Despite its rugged appearance and steep relief, the mountain is accessible via an extensive road and trail system. These reddish dacite rock formations, which are unusual to the San Francisco Peaks, were photographed from the Heart Trail in Coconino National Forest near Flagstaff, Arizona, USA.
