Upheaval Dome July 20222

My first visit in 1988 made me a devotee!

I captured this image from Google earth this morning - Under the Rim!

Amazing Structures! the huge shatter cone just beyond the parking lot!

I've been told that Upheaval Dome is higher on the southeast than the northwest.

I wondered if Google Earth's circle tool would also show an elevation Profile. I was in for a pleasant surprise.









That is true on the inner ring by ~250.'










The 2nd Rim by ~ 350 - 400.'






And the 3rd Rim (notice the scalloped edges!) by over 600 feet.
