Hi Count,

Interesting feature. There actually appears to be 4... maybe 5 of them running in a line in an almost West to East direction and graduating down in size. I don't know if this eliminates one origin over another. I guess both meteoritic and volcanic origins could do this but I'm certainly no expert in crater formation.

Cheers,

Jeff

Gentlemen and Ladies of the List,

Especially those of you interested in, or experienced in impact craters. I came across this feature yesterday while planning a field trip to a nearby area. I have been on the ground in this location several times, but wasn't aware of it's circular and elevated confirmation until looking on Google.

 37°55'19.81"N   115° 9'30.56"W
