Valles Caldera National Preserve, NM
Located in north-central New Mexico, Valles Caldera National Preserve comprises 88,900 acres of natural lands formed when a volcanic eruption about 1.2 million years ago created a 14-mile-wide circular depression in the landscape. The “dormant” volcanic activity (hot springs and steam-producing fumaroles but no eruptions) combined with elevation changes, rich soil, and abundant rainfall have created one of the most biodiverse regions in the state. Visitors enjoy conifer forests, mountain meadows, streams, and wildlife. The artists of Anderson Design Group have created this poster to celebrate the history of this amazing New Mexico wildlife preserve. This vintage-looking design will look great as a poster, canvas, mini-canvas, metal sign, postcard or notecard. To learn more about the park, visit the National Park Foundation.
