Arizona, smaller version of a well-known one...Little Colorado?

Sorry to leave thus one hanging! You got it. It's the view of the Little Colorado river from Cameron.

It's been a long time since I was there, but I think I could've guessed it w/o ever being there based on your clues.

This will be easy for those of you who live in the area, but I'm posting it because of its unbelievable geologic story.

 

[Janice]

I have no idea but would love to hear the story.

I'll post more after someone guesses it so as to not give it away. It's pretty amazing - in Wyoming.

That is awesome! I'd love to go back and see those more recent volcanic areas on Maui and Hawai'i.

Hint #1: one of this peak's high points lies on the border of two national forests and two wilderness areas, but the (barely) lower of the two is pictured.
