Garibaldi Volcano

Figure A4. Four volcanoes of Garibaldi VolcanoView looking south of four volcanoes with different morphologies. Garibaldi volcano, which encompasses three different mountain peaks (Mount Garibaldi, Atwell Peak, and Dalton Dome), is the large stratovolcano in the background. Table Mountain is a flat-topped, steep-sided volcano that erupted under glacial ice. Clinker Peak and Mount Price are the volcanoes in the foreground. Prominent levees are visible emanating from Mount Price. These levees demarcate the edges of a lava flow that erupted about 10,000 years ago. (Photograph by C.J. Hickson (Geological Survey of Canada))
