Indian Heaven


Indian Heaven

Indian Heaven is a polygenetic volcanic field in Washington, United States. It is located midway between Mount St. Helens and Mount Adams, and dates from the Pleistocene and Holocene. The field trends north to south and is dominated by seven small shield volcanoes that may have each erupted only once.[3] Those shields are topped by small spatter and cinder cones.[citation needed] The northernmost peak in the field is Sawtooth Mountain and the southernmost is Red Mountain. The highest point is Lemei Rock at 5,925 feet (1,806 m).[4]
