Damn, I just read this, got to Tyler's post, looked at the image and was all
about to reply and say "lava!". I'm apparently waaaay too slow. Sweet
looking cinder cone though. Also, if you go to the southwest a tad, there is
what I guess must be a forest fire? You have to be at the right zoom level
though, zoom in too much and you miss it:
35 degrees 36' 23.26" N, 111 degrees 37' 36.88" W

Ah, googlemaps, how much I love wasting time with you.
