I did some looking in Google Earth and was able to spot it. Then I switched the view to Google Maps and lo and behold it is labeled as the "Miami Meteorite Crater". https://maps.google.com/maps?ll=25.74964,-80.12161&spn=0.00832,0.009881&t=h&z=17 If the label doesn't show, you need to change to the old Google Maps view - click on the "?" and "switch to classic view". Does that mean it's already been named?


I did that. The landslide looking part also goes north. This represents two sets of erosion currents - the north one is weaker and is further dispersed by the eastward outflow eroision which occurs all along this stretch of coast.

So essentially it is a big slow 'landslide' of excess material.

Also, please tell more about the possible find in my backyard...ok, NM is a BIG backyard. Full of tumbleweeds this time of the year.


For what it's worth I'm also in the very preliminary stages of researching a really small possible impact site in the Carson National Forest.
