I spent a day driving through El Malpais ("the badlands"), first visiting the various sandstone formations and lava overlooks, and then taking a scenic dirt road through the lesser-travelled parts... learning along the way that this part of the trip would have been easier if I had had a more detailed map of the area, and had known for sure where I was, rather than just knowing where I wanted to be going.
