Devils Homestead Crossing - Lava Beds National Monument - Scenic Roadside Look-Outs on Waymarking.com

Devils Homestead Crossing passes through this scenic roadside lookout and has an informative sign that discusses the history of this area. The placard says the following:

Beds of Lava

Imagine watching hot lava flowing toward you at this spot over twelve thousand years ago. Like treads rolling on a tank, the clinkery, cooling front of the flow fell off and was run over by the hot molten core. The Devils Homestead flow, which erupted from Fleener Chimneys more than a mile south of here, provides an excellent example of rough a'a lava. More fluid pahoehoe lava leaves behind a smooth, ropy surface. The wide variety of eruptions here at Lava Beds and the abundant features left behind make this area an exceptional place to explore volcanic geology.

The view of the lava flow through here looks very primitive and there is very little vegetation or scenic points of interest. The view is black, sharp, and lifeless. If you look at this area on Google Maps you will notice that this lava flow stretches for miles and its expanse is pretty vast across this terrain in the high desert of northern California.
