Geo 365: Jan. 28, Day 28: Belknap Crater

Moving uphill from the McKenzie River on Route 242, we're approaching McKenzie Pass. This is a pullout where the road first encounters a fresh, young lava flow. The view is to the NNE, and the peak on the horizon is Belknap Crater.

Photo unmodified. October 9, 2012. FlashEarth location. Note: you may have noticed, I have a distinct preference for vertically formatted photos. This is because I'm limited, on this platform, by width, and not by height. But I'm pretty sure that if you right-click and "open link in new tab," it makes no difference in the actual resolution you in which you can see it.
