CRATERS OF THE MOON. IN
IDAHO, MOST INTERESTING

At the close of the year 1927 there
were in the territory of the United
States 10 national parks and as
monuments - The difference between
The two classes is not easy to define.
Only one of them is in Idaho. il is
Uncle Sans largest monument and
is known as the "Craters of theMoon" !"
It consists Of so square miles set
apart by President Coolidge, and is
! under supervision Of the Secretary of
the Interior. Tt is the most recent
and striking part of the great lava
fields which begin 25 miles southwest
of Arco, and extended from Butte into
Blaine county. This monument is
ldaho's most wonderful natural fea-
ture, and is easily accessible by a
good highway.
Visitors to this area usually form
the erroneous opinion that it must
have been the scene of violent vol
canic eruptions at some time in it's
history. AS a matter of fact the lava
beds are the result Of comparatively
quiet flows rather than the explo-
sions. Harold Stearns says that a
tremendous fissure opened in the adj
jacent mountain slopes from which
basalt or lava flowed out over the
area, carrying with it fragments of
granite. The temperature of the lava
he estimates at 1000 degrees fahren-
helt. The fissure in the slope. being
thus relieved of pressure, healed over,
but from time to time at long inter-
vals it again opened up and covered
the area with new surface of mol
ten basalt.
The intervals between these flows
were so long that trees sometimes
took root and grew to large size be-
fore a new flow surrounded them.
Frequently the flowing lava would
not destroy or even materially iniure
the tree; in time the wood rotted away
leaving perfect tree-moId in the
frozen rock.
In some cases the melted mineral
flowed like slow river AS it cooled
the tops and sides hardened first.
while the central portion flowed out
forming sort of tube. Sections of
these tubes still remain in the form
II caves and arches OIL natural bridges.
The process of cooling and harden
ng was slow beyond human compre-
1ension, and as it went on the metal
assumed every degree of rigidity,
rom perfect liquid to hardened rock.
While the surface was yet somewhat
'oft, gas and steam bubbled through
t forming the various types of spat- !
er cones, and particles were thrown J
lolently out, to cool in flight and ;
orm the peculiar bombs" which lie
n the surface in many places. If the s
eader has ever seen the paint potso
the Yellowstone park, their activity
1ill help him to imagine what went c
n in the Crater park during the cool c
ng process.
Biologists estimate that the last
ruption occurred between $50 and n
600 years ago. On hot summer day k

ut of his car for fear of burning his n
