Interpreted sequence of volcanism and fault activity where the Active Scarp cuts into Cinder Butte from the south. (A) Development of Cinder Butte, the lavas of which overlie the 53.5 ± 2 ka basalt west of Six Mile Hill, resulted in a new portion of the Hat Creek fault (the Pali) branching away from the older Rim scarps and propagating northwest toward Cinder Butte. (B) Fault offset of older Cinder Butte lavas by continued growth of the Pali scarp to the northwest. (C) Eruption of later Cinder Butte lavas at 38 ± 7 ka, emplacing lava flows onto both the footwall and hanging wall sides of the fault and creating a geomorphic offset of the lava. (D) Eruption of Hat Creek lavas at 24 ± 6 ka. Northward transport of these lava flows along the hanging wall of the Pali scarp resulted in onlap of Cinder Butte lavas. (E) Ongoing fault activity was manifested by a vertical fault (the Active Scarp) cutting up through Hat Creek lavas, forming a fault-trace monocline and ultimately a vertical scarp, producing a total 56 m of vertical offset of Hat Creek lavas.

Poison Lake chain of the Caribou Volcanic Field. View is looking southwest from dirt road just south of Windy Gap Well (Harvey Mountain quadrangle). The flat foreground (elevation 1700 m) is underlain by the tholeiitic basalt of Grays Valley (ca. 600 ka). The hills in the near distance (at 1925–2096 m elevation, ∼6–7 km from camera) are cinder cones of the Poison Lake chain (100–110 ka). Hill 2096 is the vent for unit bb5 of the basalts and basaltic andesites of Bogard Buttes; hill 2078 is the vent for unit bs5 of the basalts of Stephens Campground; hills 2001 and 1974 are vents for units bt3 and bt4 of the basalts of Pittville Road; hill 1919 is the vent for unit br2 of the basalts of Robbers Spring; hills 1925 and 1942 are the vents for units bp3 and bp4 of the basalts of Poison Butte. At the far left and far right, there are Tertiary calc-alkaline edifices: the dacite of Bogard Buttes (2350–2225 ka) and the andesite of Cal Mountain (2345 ± 49 ka). In the left-center skyline, there are the cinder cones for the basalt of Twin Buttes (unit bdt, 46.3 ± 3.4 ka), part of the Bidwell Spring chain of the Caribou Volcanic Field. In the center skyline, there is the vent for the basalt of hill 2109 (unit bl21, ca. 220–250 ka), part of the Cone Lake chain of the Caribou Volcanic Field. In the right-center skyline, there are West Prospect Peak (300–400 ka) and Prospect Peak (247 ± 56 ka), both regional calc-alkaline andesites. In the far distance (∼38 km from camera), just to the left of Prospect Peak, there is Lassen Peak (27 ± 1 ka), part of the Eagle Peak sequence of the Lassen dome field. Figure is adapted from photograph 38 of Muffler et al. (2010).

Light detection and ranging (lidar) bare earth images of different Cascade volcanoes. All lidar images are from the Oregon Department of Mineral Industry lidar viewer (www.oregongeology.org/lidar). (A) South Sister Volcano (SS) showing Holocene silicic domes and flows of the Newberry flow (NF), Rock Mesa dome (RM), and the Devil Lake dome chain (DL). The eroded edifice of Broken Top (BT), a Pleistocene volcano, lies to the east. (B) The Sand Mountain chain of cinder cones including the Nash Crater (NC), Sand Mountain cones (SM), and an apron of lava flows extending west to Clear Lake (CL) and the upper Mackenzie River. Also shown are the late Pleistocene tuyas of Hayrick Butte (HaB) and Hogg Rock (HR) and the small mafic stratocone of Hoodoo Butte (HoB). (C) Mount Hood (MH) stratovolcano showing Crater Rock (CR), a dome complex formed by the two most recent eruptions that occurred ~1500 and ~230 years ago. Also shown is the Timberline collapse surface (Tim), formed by sector collapse that occurred ~1500 years ago. (D) Newberry Volcano caldera and surroundings, showing abundant cinder cones and lava flows on the flanks; two caldera lakes, East Lake (EL) and Paulina Lake (PL); Paulina Peak (PP), the highest point on the caldera wall; and the ~1300-year-old Big Obsidian Flow (BOF).

Oblique Google Earth image of Section 1 of the Black Mountains Fault Zone (BMFZ; view east from 5.6-km elevation; October 30, 2010 imagery date) showing both the eastern and western sections along with the locations of study Sites A, B, and C relative to the Amargosa River flood plain. The Southern Death Valley Fault Zone (SDVFZ) is also shown along with Shoreline Butte basalt at the northern end of the Confidence Hills and Cinder Hill. Undifferentiated Miocene-Pleistocene sedimentary rocks are of the Miocene-Pliocene Furnace Creek Formation and the Pliocene-Pleistocene Funeral Formation. Arrows show relative motion on strike slip faults; relative motion on normal fault is shown by up-thrown (U) and down-thrown (D) blocks.
