Craters of the Moon
November 20th, 2008
If you ever find yourself in Idaho or the general area and feel like seeing something “different” then make your way to Craters of the Moon National Monument. I had the joy of going there on a previous roadtrip and thought It was totally worth the trip. (http://www.nps.gov/crmo/)
You feel like you’ve left this planet and landed on the moon. The landscape is made up of nothing but lava flows and tourists wandering them. In the summer is is really hot on the surface, but if you take a walk down into some of the lava caves it can be freezing cold .. careful for the ice!
This is really a very unique place and if you’re on a road trip or looking for something cheap to do for vacation since nobody seems to have extra money anymore because of the economy, make your way to idaho!
