Location: Los Gemelos, Santa Cruz, Galápagos Islands, Ecuador
Year: 2004
Merckslides catalogue number: 16(06)-19061
Comments: There are several stadium-sized pits in the highlands of Santa Cruz. The process by which they formed, however, is enigmatic, as they resemble neither caldera collapses or solution collapse features. A good Ph.D. project.
