Geological Limnology Of Crater Lake Oregon PDF Download

Excerpt from The Geology and Petrography of Crater Lake National Park The geological record of this country from the earliest epochs to the present time is replete with volcanic phenomena, but the climax appears to have been reached in the earlier portion of the Neocene, when one of the largest known volcanic fields of the world was vigorously active in our Northwestern States. This area of volcanic activity stretches from the Rocky Mountains to the Pacific, embracing a large part of Wyoming, Montana, Idaho, Washington, Oregon, and California, and presenting a great variety of volcanic phenomena concerning which, notwithstanding a copious literature, there has been as yet but a small amount of detailed investigation.
