You have been given the task of investigating a particular location/natural feature on planet Earth that has been created by tectonic forces.  You have unlimited money and time, and you can go anywhere in the world that is physically possible (ex. going into the vent of a poisonous volcano is off the table).  Let's explore some of your options before you choose.

Go to each website link and explore the different locations.  Click on different links, skim the articles, and determine if any of these places are spots you would like to visit.
