This outlook accesible on the way down
from the summit, provides another spectacular view of the crater
floor dotted with cinder cones painted in red, brown and gray.
From this distance the cinder cones seem small but can be as
tall as 600 feet. The cinder cones are considered to be
geologically young, having formed in the last 2500 years.
Downslope from the overlook's parking lot is an area covered
with many silverswords. Beware, there's lots of bees in this area.
