Global Volcanism Program | Image GVP-12518

The Granada volcanic complex contains maars and scoria cones, with some shown in this February 2020 Planet Labs satellite image monthly mosaic (N is at the top; this image is approximately 9 km across). Near the center of this image is the N-S trending La Joya maar chain. SW of that are several scoria cones, one with a preserved crater and one with a quarry next to the road.
