Intrigued by the beautiful phenomenon shown on the image and loving to browse around the planet with the Google Earth application, I could not resist trying to find out where it was located.<br \/>\nSo, with a little bit of luck, I pretty quickly found the location in Bolivia. The &#8220;crater&#8221; like structure is a synclinal depression formed of Cretaceous sediments interlayered with basaltic deposits. It seems to be the place to see dinosaur tracks and a tourist attraction for hikers.<br \/>\nSo, according the rules of the contest, it is now my turn to challenge you. Ann and Chris have kindly agreed to host.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/all-geo.org\/highlyallochthonous\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/07\/GE_185_bh.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/all-geo.org\/highlyallochthonous\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/07\/GE_185_small.jpg\" width=\"500\" height=\"325\" alt=\"GE_185_small.jpg\"\/><\/a><br \/><b>Click for a larger image<\/b><\/p>\n<p>The region where I grabbed this picture is one of the many examples how aesthetically beautiful geology can be. It is taken from a eye height of 19.33 km and the top of the image is within 30 degrees of North. And no, it is not on Mars.<br \/>\nSo, what do we see and where is it located?<br \/>\n<i>Note from Chris: I think Erwin might be a little bit evil, but we&#8217;ll have to see. Although I&#8217;m tempted to waive the Schott Rule for this one, I think I&#8217;ll leave it in force for the time being.
