Lava Beds National Monument has very interesting history, geology, and natural wonders. The Modoc War represents the unfortunate loss of lives with the relocation of the indigenous people and the draining (65 %) of the Tulelake to create farmland. If you enjoy spelunking, this area has volcanic lava caves (tubes). Please register at the National Park visitor center for a permit. Petroglyph Point is a remarkable place with over a thousand ancient symbols etched into sandstone to mark the many individuals who came to the lake for trade. 2500 to 4500 years ago. This area has hiking trails and senic beauty with Mt Shasta in the distance.
