Farmlands encroach on the eastern margin of the Ice Springs lava flow, Utah's youngest.  The 660-year-old lava flow originated from a complex of cinder and spatter cones and extends a maximum distance of 8 km from its source.  The flow contains abundant xenoliths of partially fused granite. Photo by Lee Siebert, 1996 (Smithsonian Institution).
