Sunset Crater and the San Francisco Peaks
The last stop on our teacher workshop field trip before heading back to Phoenix was Sunset Crater National Monument, a cindercone volcano in northern Arizona. When we were leaving the park, we caught a gorgeous view of the sun peaking through the monsoon clouds and shining on the San Francisco Peaks. As we drove out of Flagstaff, the sky beneath the clouds turned a brilliant shade of magenta. It was a beautiful sunset, which was short-lived as we then drove through pouring rain all the way back to Phoenix.
