Jemez
Mountains
On
the skyline to the west are the Jemez Mountains where tremendous
volcanic eruptions a million years ago created a huge
caldera
some 15 miles in diameter that now forms beautiful Valle Grande set
amid a ring of volcanic peaks. Geothermal energy has
been
tapped from hot rock beneath the mountains.
