I live in Williams by Garland Prairie and the prairies are gorgeous during the spring from all the snow melt. I actually went to Agassiz Peak today and it was breathtaking!
I cant remember where I seen a video but I'm trying to find it. But a geologist was giving his own theory that it was actually bigger than what we see. He said it was a stratovolcano but it wasn't a singular cone. It was elongated. from the northwest to the south east having as many as 3 to 6 peaks. And like mount saint Helen's it did blow up but it didnt collapse in it actually blew out south by south west/part east and he showed a giant chunk of rock part of Humphreys peak is found 8 to 10 miles south of Flagstaff. It had an explosive equivalent of 4 to 6 Hiroshima bombs. Than erosions happened and such. It was, at it's time 3 times bigger than mount everest from the bottom of sedona up or if you started in the north itll still be taller than Everest.
The cinders range in size from sand size to huge boulders, blasted out when the volcano erupted many times, shot away into the air like a gun bullet and landing many miles from the mountain.
That whole drop the T sound is very lazy sounding used by the youngsters. This is an interesting presentation, I’m trying not to focus on those mispronounced words.
All theorys, like bad dreams dissolve as you wake up yourself to reality: Sunset crater is it dormant? S P crater is it 71,000 years old? Least where I am from we have photos of eruptions to prove it
0:12 mormon lake?
Good stuff!! I love the area and it geographic history.
I’ve lived in Arizona my whole life and I’ve never heard anything like this! Interesting…
Good presentation! Thank you!

So how high was it at its peak?
Estimated to be over 16,000 feet or 4900 meters
Mt Taylor looks about the same around Grants New Mexico off I-40
I would love to know why cinder rocks can be found so frequently all over the woods and so far away from the mountain

@Slothy it is maddening I cant find it

What location exactly in flagstaff is this?
South east if flag Morman lake area
@@Thetinebroken it's actually on the west side of flag, it's Rogers lake. Just right off of woody mountain road.
Bellemont is what it looks like to me. South of i40 about 7 miles west of Flagstaff
This guy i butchering the English language…. Mou-ins
That's what a southwestern accent sounds like
