A visitor on the lava at Craters of the Moon

A photo story

Craters of the Moon

Craters of the Moon, the same afternoon as Borah Peak, in August 2024. It was a hot one down here, around 86, under a full cloud deck, with a stronger breeze than we'd had on the summit.

The park is a field of old lava in Idaho, and it's only about an hour and a half from Borah. I came down off the high point and was walking on black rock before the day was over.
