Geology of Lassen
National Park
An introduction to the geology of Lassen Volcanic National Park presented during
two evening programs and a one-day field trip. The evening sessions will review
the park's geologic setting, the eruptive products and histories of Lassen Peak
and Mount Tehama, and the potential volcanic hazards of the region. The field
trip will afford students opportunities to explore volcanic and geothermal features
in the western part of the park, and to visit California's most recently active
volcano.
