Sunset Crater



This was such a magical place for us to visit. Sunset Crater happened over 1,000 years ago and you could still feel the energy of the people and the land. The plants and trees have recently taken root through the cooled lava. It was simply amazing to see how much land was truly affected by the volcanos. Every visible mountain was a volcano that had erupt and they were all pretty much was covered with lava.



lava fields covered much of the land
