Weird and scenic landscape

Craters of the Moon is a national park the size of Rhode Island. (750,000 acre). It can be seen from space.



Craig walking up a cinder cone.
At the top of the cinder cone. Can you guess which way the wind is blowing.
Young lava flows with splatter cones.
Splatter cone and miles and miles of lava rock.


We ate in the small town of Arco. It's claim to fame is being the first city to be powered by atomic power. Craig had to try the Atomic burger!

I love the big green chair. Looks like a fun outing.
