Formed by explosions, the Ubehebe crater has slightly raised rims and is heightened by more than 20 m of ash
Here is the crater of Ubehebe (pronounced "ou-bii-ii-bii") and other small craters. As the magma rose, it encountered a water table: the pressure rose to shear off several tens of meters of rock, and the explosions threw millions of cubic meters of earth mixed with lava into the air. A burning cloud swept over the area, plating a layer of fine debris on the face of the rocks facing the crater. The rim around the conical hole is slightly raised and heightened by more than 20 m of ash.

Waouh, peut-être l'endroit le plus original à mes yeux de Death Valley! Un véritable coup de cœur! Les photos ne peuvent rendre compte de l'immensité du lieux. vaut vraiment le détour, on se croirait sur une autre planète! Peu de monde, de magnifiques couleurs, randonnée vraiment dépaysante! Attention, endroit extrêmement venté!

Ubehube Crater, est peu fréquenté, car situé à l'extrémité de la partie nord de la Vallée de la Mort. Mais il mérite le détour! Belle promenade courte et accessible vous mène vers le bord du cratère.
