Lava casts of trees, formed when lava flowed over the an cient forest and cooled, are the chief Interest on this area. The casts are In all positions. Some still are standing; some are on the ground, singly or in log jams formed when the lava streams carried them together. Lava cat aracts where tha molten rock flowed over cliffs, miniature cra ters, small masses of fluid lava that were thrown high in the air and hardened in odd shapes be fore landing and now are known as volcanic bombs, are among the attractions. Petrified tree trunks showing the grain of the wood or with embedded charcoal, lava cones of all sizes, and spatter cones, which are inverted cones formed by gas pockets in the liquid rock, are found. The geological area contains 5118 acres of national forest land. It will be administered for its scientific and recreational value, and to protect it from despoliation by souvenir hunters.
