View from the summit of Lassen Peak (elev. 10,457'), the second highest peak of the Cascade Range in Northern California east of Redding.  It makes up Lassen Volcanic National Park w/ significant eruptions in May 1915.  The peak is a plug dome & a mere recent formation of the ancient Mount Tehama which had consister of other nearby peaks in the park that formed ancient crater walls.  The area is still geothermally active w/ popular visit areas including Bumpass Hell & Sulphur Works.  From this highest point, one can view the recent lava flows & a shallow crater.  Haze from forest fires in the Klamath Mountains (Gasquet Complex) to the west have greatly obscured the views down to a visibility of maybe 20 miles at most, usually the higher Mt. Shasta would be prominent to the northwest.
