El Malpais National Monument

El Malpais National Monument is located south of Grants in the East Central part of New Mexico. It can be easily accessed from Interstate 40. Pictures in this gallery were taken along NM 117. El Malpais means badlands in Spanish. Its rugged terrain with large lava bed is the result of previous volcanic activities in this area.
