I know that Glassford Hill, Martin Mountain over by Skull Valley and Blowout Mountain down by Yarnell were all volcanoes & there are lava flows all over the place, but nothing has ever been pulled together. Wish someone would do it in my lifetime!<BR/><BR/>karen -- sounds like basalt... there's a rather neat book, <I>Roadside Geology of Arizona</I> which might answer your question. And the AZ Dept. of Mineral Resources has put out a bunch of county maps that show the source of the surface material .. these are good for locating the lava flows. The Chiricahuas are volcanic.Granny Jhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07302978680897139954noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20402991.post-45981715667641672262007-11-19T09:58:00.000-07:002007-11-19T09:58:00.000-07:00There is an area along Interstate 8 traveling betw...There is an area along Interstate 8 traveling between Maricopa and Yuma which looks like a lava flow because all the rocks are black and scraggy and so different from all the areas around it.
