at "Craters of the Moon" National Monument in Utah.
There were over 1,000 square miles with
examples of almost every variety of
basaltic lavas as well as tree molds (cavities left by
lava-incinerated trees), lava tube (type of cave)
and many other volcanic features. Lava eruptions
created a rugged but scenic landscape that has forced
animals and plants to adapt. It was a weird,
scenic and hot landscape and we were happy to
continue on our journey, but glad we had made the stop.
