Catemaco hole in the ground


Living in beautiful downtown Catemaco, Veracruz, I tend to take the surrounding volcanoes as scenery.Today I ventured into Google Earth and tilted my environment a little.
Apparently, there is no Volcano Santa Marta, or anything like that. Apparently a zillion years ago, the entire landscape blew up and left a giant hole with a few remnants hills like Santa Marta, Yohualtajapan, etc. Considering the earthquakes in the Veracruz area in the last few months, I am getting all excited about "living on the edge".
