NOTE: Due to resolution changes, the tour has been slightly changed and several placemarks dropped.



I really like the way that this program can bring geology and topography to life. North of Flagstaff, AZ, there is a great collection of extinct volcanoes. This tour gives an idea of what is there. 3D on at 1x, geographic features on, tour speed about 0.2 suggested. See link for further info. San Francisco Mountains Source

Hill,
You made me pull out the old photo album, and see what I found. A picture I took in the fall of 1991, out the window of a Cessna 177RG.


Now look at the attachment and see if we agree. The overlay doesn't work too well because of the angle.

The overlay looks great. It seems to me to fit very well . Thanks for the addition.

Dear Hill,

Nice work. I like that you worked Wupatki ruins into the picture.
But "extinct"? SP Crater not 10 miles away erupted in 1065 AD! It is all but certain that the San Francisco volcanic field has not seen its last eruption. And I don't mean just cinder cones.
