About this map

The volcanic topography of the Craters of the Moon National Monument dominates this 1970s survey, revealing a landscape defined by the Great Rift and recent geologic activity. The map provides precise locations for numerous volcanic features, including the eponymous Inferno Cone, the massive Big Cinder Butte, and Sunset Cone. Unlike typical settled regions, this area is characterized by vast lava fields such as the Blue Dragon Flow and the Serrate Flow, interspersed with distinct geological formations like the Buffalo Caves and Echo Crater.
