Sunset Crater Volcanic National Park

This little gem is tucked away north of Flagstaff, Arizona. It is right off the highway and it does not take very long to drive into the park. Once in the park, you'll see lots of black volcanic rock and black sand. The hiking trails are fairly simple and beautiful.


{Don't ask. I just threw this pic in for Ron and the girls.}


Hills of volcanic rock. Too bad this photos didn't turn out better. The rocks were a deep black color. In these photos, they look gray. The rocks are also VERY sharp. {Ouch!}
