Sunset Crater Volcano National Monument – April 2022 – A Look Before The Wildfire

On a recent long weekend road trip around Arizona we stopped by Sunset Crater Volcano National Monument. We were fortuitous in that a week later the ‘Tunnel Wildfire’ impacted the area. Fortunately it did not damage the visitor center but much of the forest was burnt.

Sunset Crater is a result of an eruption approximately 1000 years ago, leaving this impressive landscape.
