Our second short hike at Sunset Crater Volcano National Monument today was the Lava Flow Trail. this is a 1 mile loop trail. It was still about 29F with a chilly breeze. The park is at 7,000 ft.
Sunset Crater in the near distance
Behind us, we could see the San Francisco Mountains
To the northwest is O'Leary Peak, just outside the park boundary
Looking up at a Spatter Cone
Another spatter cone
view of the San Francisco Mountains across the lava flow
There was some ice on the trail today
Another view of Sunset Crater
view of a squeeze-up
squeeze up from the other side
View of Sunset Crater across the lava flow
There were some large chunks of lava
