Utah In the past it was plate tectonics that sculpted the majestic land around us and it will be plate tectonics in the future that will continue to mold and rework the land like it is playdough. So how can we as humans learn to appreciate this magnificent power; yet, be fearful enough to stay safe?

Volcanoes Volcano - a vent (opening) at the Earth's crust through which magma (molten rock) and associated gases erupt. Magma - molten rock beneath the surface of the Earth. Lava - magma that has reached the surface

Cedar Hill, is a shield volcano, and is located north of Great Salt Lake. It bears a resemblance to several Hawaiian shield volcanoes and is approximately 1,150,000 years old.
