The whole area out here was once volcanic. Our subdivision is on a ridge
200' above the surrounding area. It was once a river bed where lava flowed
down. The lava is much more resistant to erosion than the surrounding
sedimentary rock, which has worn down over the eons. I understand the
"fresh" lava flows over on the other side of town are still a couple
thousand years old. However, the total lack of vegetation on it makes it
look like is much more recent. Some of the high-dollar subdivisions are
over in that area.
