 
China Hat
Geological Site
China Hat and China Cap are rhyolite domes that formed around
older lava flows. There are many faults located in the area which
have had a part in forming these landforms as well as multiple
"grabens." Graben is the German word for "grave." What the traveler
sees is not a grave, but depressions created on the earth's surface
when blocks of crust drop down. Stop at Blackfoot River County Park
northwest of China Hat for a picnic and a deep exploration of your surroundings.
