After our science-y adventures we finally reached Craters of the Moon National Monument.  I can vaguely remember going here as a kid at some point.  And I think we recreated that trip almost in its entirety.

I can remember hiking up Inferno Cone and the deceptiveness of the climb.  When you think you’re just about at the top you find out the trail just levels out for a moment and the angle hides the rest of the cone.  Heather and I went to the top….
