Lava Beds National Monument is a land with a tumultuous past, both geological and historical. Over the last half-million years, this high desert has experienced volcanic eruptions, creating a very rugged landscape of lava tubes, fumaroles, spatter cones, pit craters, volcanic fields and cinder cones. In 1872 and 1873, the Modoc War took place in this area pitting a band of natives led by Kintpuash (also known as Captain Jack) against the army of the United States. Captain Jack's Stronghold is where the Modoc fighters were headquartered during the Modoc War. Pictured here is the camp cemetery. Gillem's Camp is located in Lava Beds National Monument, California, USA.

Wupatki National Monument, Arizona, USA - March 7, 2020: Between 1100AD and 1200AD native people inhabited the plains between the Painted Desert and the San Francisco Peaks of Arizona. In an area so dry it would seem impossible to live, they built pueblos, harvested rainwater, grew crops and raised families. Their way of life was the key to survival in this harsh landscape. These people survived here, farming one of the warmest and driest places on the Colorado Plateau. They developed the skills to farm the land and endure hardship in an area where many would not. Today the remnants of their villages dot the landscape. These people, led by a ranger are examining a dwelling on East Mesa in Wupatki National Monument. The monument, established in 1924 to preserve this rich heritage, is near Flagstaff, Arizona, USA.

Sheepeater Cliffs on the Grand Loop Road, south of Mammoth Hot Springs is named after the Shoshone people, also known as the Tukudika or 'Sheepeaters,' who once lived here. The cliffs are composed of columnar basalt, formed from lava flows about 500,000 years ago. The hexagonal columns were created as the lava cooled and contracted, resulting in the distinctive jointing patterns seen today. The site provides insights into the history and lifestyle of the native Shoshone people who utilised the area for hunting bighorn sheep and other resources.
