Sulphur, Salt and Other Minerals Color the Crater of Dallol Volcano, Ethiopia Photographic Print (14º14'30"N 40º18'0"E)

Dallol is a ‘maar’ or broad, low-relief volcanic craters in the Danakil Depression, northeast of the Erta Ale Range in Ethiopia. Formed during a 1926 phreatic eruption (when rising magma makes contact with ground or surface water), numerous other similar craters are in the area. These craters are over 45 m (150 ft) below sea level, the lowest known subaerial volcanic vents in the world.

The term Dallol (coined by the Afar people) means dissolution or disintegration describing a landscape made up of acid ponds (pH-values around 2) iron oxide, sulfur and salt desert plains. The Danakil Depression resembles the hot springs areas of Yellowstone Park.

Devils Tower, a monolithic volcanic neck or igneous intrusion in the Black Hills in north eastern Wyoming, is an iconic image from the 1977 movie Close Encounters of the Third Kind.

It was the first declared national monument in the US.

FYI - Devils is the correct spelling, with out the '.
