Lava Beds National Monument
Northern California Distance: 677 miles one-way Solitude may be the defining feature of a visit to the geological gyrations of Lava Beds National Monument, tucked into the far northeastern corner of California. It's a wonderland few people see: The monument drew fewer than 103,000 people last year. Bump that up against the 3.5 million who visited Yosemite National Park, and you get an idea of the seclusion. -- Vicki Haddock Read more: Lava Beds National Monument: underground cave exploration |
