I hiked the O'Leary Peak Trail. Fantastic hike up a volcano. You're going uphill for 5 miles, but it's not especially steep.

There are many volcanoes around Flagstaff, and Sunset Crater is one of the younger and most notable ones. This volcano erupted about 1,000 years ago. In the green jungle around the red peak, you can see many dark magma particles. There are no vegetation on the top of the mountain. These are the remnants of the volcanic eruption. Now the trail leading to the main crater is no longer open, and there is a short circular trail next to it.

循环道路US89提供访问这两个火山口和日落(南段)Wupatki遗址(北部)很容易就可以到达从flagstaff或大峡谷。从房间看到的景色很具有戏剧性的变化。日落火山口很大和许多其他较小的火山锥体与附近也可见。在那里很容易就沿着小道两侧通过座崎岖的熔岩。这是相当令人惊讶的是在中间的熔岩和想象的区块1,000年前从其崩溃下来的火山口和日落的圆锥的其他!这是不是一个熔岩流动的熔岩作为一个爆炸式增长。有一个更具挑战性的垂直跟踪了一个圆锥形的标间,还有很棒的景色。游客中心有一个木头的建筑是一个相当有趣的展出和森林。描述性的标示也是很棒的。一个费用($20.00每辆车)涵盖了这两个地方。计划花一天时间游览这两个地方,特别是如果你做了一些的步行小道。驱动器从一端到另一个循环的绝对漂亮:不断变化的景色也是难忘。
景色很不错,而且还是免费的!交通也很方便
第一次近距离接触的火山,日落火山口弗拉格斯塔夫之行我们去了一个让我特别难忘的景点,那就是有名的日落火山口,它是该地区最为年轻的火山,在千年前喷发过,现在日落火山口基本上没有什么草木,特别的荒凉。在日落火山口的体验特别的不一样,壮丽的自然景观是这里最大的看点,火山口的景色也很惊艳。火山口美景行走在去日落火山口的路上,第一感受就是这里的荒凉,虽然周围有一些零碎的草木,但是都长得特别的矮小。去火山口的路上我们并不孤独,这种荒凉的景色在镜头里显得特别的有质感,我们都很喜欢这里拍的照片。日落时分日落火山口最好看的是日落时分,最好是带上单反拍摄日落火山口的景色,夕阳西下把日落火山口渲染成一幅壮美的景观,好像是一幅难以割舍的油画。本来就有一些鲜红的日落火山口在日落的时候更加的美丽,有点火焰山的味道。PS:全天开放
