Geology and Geography ---> southwest

Any Geology professors here?

I was crusin above the earth a few yrs ago-virtually

I have discovered a giant blemish on the earths crust not discussed in--well any circles that I know of.--it makes the asteroid crater in AZ look like a tiny pock-mark.

I see what looks like a big hole in the ground about 80 miles out of Del Rio on a heading of about 260.

I dunno what it is. There are some volcanic craters south of there (west of Monterrey), but not as big as this. This one doesn't look volcanic to me. Of course, I'm not a geologist.

It's actually a volcano - Cerro el Colorado or Red Mountain
Looks like a crater in satellite photo but it is actually higher than surrounding area.
