A Discovery Pack and its contents

Check out a Discovery Pack

Become a naturalist for a day. Discovery Packs contain binoculars, a magnifying lens, field guides, sketching materials and more, to help you explore the monument. There's also a Field Journal with activities and places to record your observations. Although designed with families in mind, Discovery Packs can be enjoyed by anyone with a sense of curiosity.

Discovery Packs are for use in all 3 Flagstaff Area National Monuments (Walnut Canyon, Sunset Crater Volcano, and Wupatki). You can borrow one at the visitor center, then return it (at any of the 3 monument visitor centers) at the end of your visit. The Field Journal is yours to keep. There is no charge.

Aerial view of Sunset Crater Volcano

Did You Know?
The large pueblos preserved at Wupatki National Monument were constructed in the years following the eruption of nearby Sunset Crater, sometime between 1040 and 1100. Volcanic ash, deposited in thin layers, retained moisture and improved farming for an increased population at Wupatki.
