| Description |
BLM Winter Bucket List #18: Craters of the Moon National Monument, Idaho, to Walk (in Snowshoes) on the Moon Managed jointly by the Bureau of Land Management and National Park Service, Craters of the Moon is a geologic wonder in a uniquely preserved volcanic landscape whose central focus is the Great Rift, a 62-mile long crack in the Earth’s crust. Craters, cinder coves, lava tubes, deep cracks, and vast lava fields form a strangely beautiful volcanic sea on central Idaho’s Snake River Plain. Local legends made references to the landscape resembling the surface of the moon. In fact, the second group of astronauts to walk on the moon visited Craters of the Moon in 1969 to study the volcanic geology and to explore an unusual and harsh environment in preparation for their trip to space. So grab your snowshoes - or rent them on site - for your own walk on the moon. The mix of snow and lava makes for an unforgettable winter adventure. |
