I guess they found this tree, and used it to determine how old this lava is... supposedly around 2000 years old

That's the inside of a spatter cone... more snow!! Yes, we got to go inside a volcano!! It said these were excellent insulators which is why it can keep snow when it's sooo hot

This is from Tree Molds Trail. We didn't walk far enough to see tree molds, but from here we're on a hill and you can see the lava rocks that have fallen... yup like straight down!

This is from Devil's Orchard... And that tree is a Limber pine that has the parasite dwarf mistletoe, which they call "witches broom"

Day 138: Project 365
Me and Adam also went to Craters of the Moon in Arco, Idaho. These pictures really don't do it justice because this place was seriously awesome too!! I guess in '69 astronauts came here to do training for the visit to the moon!
