  • The San Francisco peaks are a large volcanic field. On the left side of those mountains, you find a peak that is taller than the rest of them. It is called Humphreys peak and at 12,633 feet, that is the highest point in Arizona. The four other highest peaks are Humphreys, Agassi, Fremont, and Doyle. All those peaks are just remnants of what was in the past and the entire mountain used to be much higher than it is today.

    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 would love to know why cinder rocks can be found so frequently all over the woods and so far away from the mountain

      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.

    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
