Craters of the Moon
United States. National Park Service. Division of Publications
Astronauts once trained here because it looks like another world: a black sea of lava on the Snake River Plain. This guide walks Craters of the Moon, explaining the rift volcanism that built its cinder cones and how life slowly reclaims the moonscape. Geology and wildlife across an Idaho wonder. Step onto the ground that mimics the moon.
Every copy includes a printable PDF edition, a beautifully typeset book you can print, mark up in the margins, and keep on your shelf. Yours the moment you own it.
