    1. You are thinking of the Three Sisters. 3 conjoined peaks South of Mt Jefferson, not in this picture.

  3. Must have been a lot of fun around here a few tens of millions years ago. I live here and the geology is amazing. Please pass the basalt.

  4. What an exceptionally clear day - visibility in excess of 150 miles? Elevation what, about 20,000 ft or so?

  5. Jefferson is closest in Pic. Mt Hood Next. St Helens to the left without a top. Rainer in the middle back. And Adams to the back right.

    1. Yeah, I figured the one with 1300' missing off the top was St. Helens.
      Kind of interesting that you can see it's relocated 1300' spread out to the right.

  7. There are over 60 volcanoes just in Oregon alone and numerous lava fields and vents.

  8. My dad climbed all of those. I climbed Hood twice. I was planning to climb St. Helens, but it blew up.
