Meteor Crater is a fascinating place, isn't it? I was there many years ago and enjoyed the time. I was part of a hot air balloon team at the time and we had been contracted by a Hollywood movie company to film our balloon flying out of the bottom of the crater. We had to scout most of the bottom for a good setup spot, then after all was said and done it was too windy to fly...ah well!! Glad you had a chance to see it.
