show the American West as you've never seen it. Someone just sent me the link and I see the article is from 2012, so this has most likely been posted in the past. Hopefully it was long enough ago that it will be new for some and happily re-viewed by others. I am stunned at the beauty of these shots from the 1800s, plus the story is quite interesting.

(27,453 posts)I was there in the late 60s before the really interesting part was fenced off. There were some amazing geological formations; large volcanic bubbles with crystals inside. Can't get to that area anymore. The big pyramid on the south side is a pelican habitat.
