We were on limited time and it was REALLY Really REALLY windy. This photo doesn't quite show how steep it is.
Inferno Cone Trail is a short but steep path up the cinder cone at the center of the scenic loop drive in Crater of the Moon National Monument. This 6,181-foot summit provides a panoramic view of the surrounding volcanic landscape. Inferno Cone Trail is just half a mile round trip with 160 feet of elevation gain.
Cinder cones form when gas-rich volcanic froth erupts high into the air and then piles in a mound.
