Burney Mountain

Burney Mountain is a 2,397-metre (7,864 ft) tall complex volcanic dome, located in northern California next to the slightly larger Crater Peak and the slightly smaller Magee Peak. It is extinct, with its last eruption having been about 230,000 BC during the Pleistocene epoch. The volcano is composed of two craters, which open to the east.[1][2][3][4][5]
