El Paso area East 2009
Hueco Tanks
 
 
 
 
 
Below is what we saw in that cave. There was only room for one of us at a time in there.
 
After leaving Hueco Tanks, we took a drive to see another volcanic crater.
This ocotillo bush was flowering.
 
I guess predators would have a difficult time getting to these babies.
Lots of these were by the railroad tracks.
This is Aden Crater. A giant sloth was found at the crater in a lava tube in 1928. It still had hair and skin on it. The lava tube is over 100 feet deep.  
This one is for Doug. Its the tube way out away from the volcano that had fallen in. This spot was way in the back and we wondered if it had some crystals in it.
