More Wanderings..

In the Jemez Mountains in Northern New Mexico is an amazing caldera, or volcanic crater.  Around this caldera, throughout the mountain range are huge rocks standing alone among the trees or on the edges of meadows.  I love this one.  It is called Tea Kettle Rock; the name alone enchants me.  It is bigger than it looks, I included figures in the photo to put it into perspective.

From the North side.  I think of it as the front..

The back of it, notice the little cave in the lower right hand corner of the photo.  Fun place!
