AMBOY CRATER
Amboy Crater is located along highway 66 a short
distance from the town of Amboy. A foot trail
leads to the top of this 200 foot cone of dark
gray pumice and lava. The area has one of the
lowest average rain fall than any place in the
desert. The average rainfall is 2.3 inches; in four
out of twenty years it had no rain. Along the
railroad are lonely stops without water or shade,
names like Siberia and Klondike where the summer
temperatures soar to a blistering 120 or above . . .
