Newberry Lava Beds

Near Bend, OR

This place was pretty amazing. The East side of the Cascade Mountains is an area formed from fire. Lava eruptions and earthquakes formed many of out features. The astronauts trained here in the mid sixties to practice walking on the moon.

Interesting place and information.

some people here in Florida believe that is the kind of place where the original moon walk was filmed!

Neat stuff! I was there as a kid...maybe 35 years ago or more.

Very nice scene, kerry. Amazing how trees are going in this lava bed. Well done. V

Very cool shot. I like the trees popping out of the lava.

Rough terrain, amazing how the trees will still make it through the lava!!

Interesting place; like the round shape of the hill in the background

That really is cool - not surprised it doubled up for the moon.
