Summary

| Description |
English: This site is in eastern California's Long Valley Caldera, a large depression formed about 760,000 years ago during a large eruption of the Long Valley Volcano. The eruption produced large volumes of ash, air-fall pumice, and pyroclastic flow pumice.
The hills in the background (looking northwest) are part of the Long Valley Caldera's resurgent dome, which consists of ~650 to 730 ka rhyolite. The valley in the foreground is Hot Creek Gorge, along which hydrothermal water emerges to form hot springs. The bedrock in the Hot Creek area includes the Hot Creek Rhyolite Flow, a sanidine-augite-phyric moat rhyolite that erupted from a vent to the south of here. The Hot Creek Flow dates to ~288 ka (a ~333 ka date has also been published). Locality: Hot Creek Gorge, Long Valley, eastern California, USA (37° 39' 37.87" North latitude, 118° 49' 46.45" West longitude) |
