Postcard: Meteor Crater between Flagstaff and Winslow Arizona
"This crater was formed by the falling of an immense meteor which threw out over 300,000,000 tons of debris. It is 700 feet deep and three miles in circumference. The meteor is estimated to weigh 5,000,000 tons and is composed of iron, nickel, platinum, and other rare materials. The crater is easily accessible to visitors."
This is still a great stop when vacationing in Arizona.
