Produced by the Craters of the Moon staff. Contents: Exploration and Preservation; From Moonscape to Landscape; Guide and Advisor. Craters of the Moon was so named because at one time, before people had actually gone to the moon, some people thought that the landscape resembled the moon's surface. The name became official with the establishment of the monument in 1924. There are more than 25 cinder cones at Craters of the moon, each one a small volcano. The monument is near the Snake River in Idaho.

For thousands of years, people mostly avoided the lava fields of Idaho. Artifacts indicate that native people passed through, but they did not remain for long due to the lack of water. Later, the trails that the Shoshone-Bannock created around the northern edge of the lava provided a path for Oregon-bound migrants and ultimately highway motorists. Eventually, curiosity about this unknown region led others to seek it out. In the 1920s, Robert Limbert explored the area and shared his adventures with a wider audience through his photography and writing. In 1924, Pres. Calvin Coolidge established Craters of the Moon National Monument, ushering in a new era of National Park Service management. Three other presidents expanded the boundary, leading to a much larger monument and preserve. More than 100 years of Craters of the Moon's history are celebrated in this pictorial guide.
