I found downtown Flagstaff interesting, tho' I just walked around for an hour in the early AM before the shops were open. I was waiting for Lowell observatory to open (also in Flagstaff; worth the effort).

There's also the Painted Desert / Petrified Forest between Flagstaff & the NM border. I spent a day there, taking a few walking tours.
