A short, easy Summer loop hike from Snow Bowl Road on the San Francisco Peaks near Flagstaff leads to Alfa Fia Tank.

The Trailhead for Alfa Fia Tank begins at this post and rail fenced meadow. Parking a car is easy.

Tall Aspens surround the meadow.

The meadow offers many great picnic spots.

The area once was fenced, but only the posts and a few strands of barbed wire remain.

Rain closes in on the trail. The Summer monsoon season typically lasts through July, with frequent showers and thunderstorms.
