The surrounding Black Hills were formed some 20 million years ago, when volcanoes erupted and formed mountain ranges like the Peloncillo Mountains just south of here. When you read the information board, look straight to see the different colors of the various volcanic rock: red, yellowish, brown to dark white. Volcanic rock, especially cinder, is used as a building material and there are some old mining pits in the area.
