Geology of the Cascade Mountains in Washington State
August 5-13, 2000
Coordinated by: Marcia Knadle
The Cascade Mountains are the only active magmatic arc in the contiguous US and are readily accessible. Moreover, in Washington State a fascinating and complex collection of accretionary terranes lies beneath the chain of beautiful but dangerously active andesitic stratovolcanoes.
