A trip to a volcano…

This was the day before the Grand Canyon but we are just getting caught up on posting on the blog.  We took a trip to Sunset Crater just a short drive from Flagstaff and then on to Wuptaki National monument.  These photos are from the volcano.  The last time it erupted was in the 1940’s (only a very minor eruption), but the major eruption was the year 1085.  The first few photos are of the volcano cone and then the other photos are from the nearby 750ft summit that we almost died climbing up from the thin air.  We did bring home a couple of small pieces of lava as a souvenir.
