Eruption of Lassen Peak Extends in 1914 1915
Lassen Peak in Lassen Volcanic National Park northwestern California marked the dying phase of Cascade volcanism. The long sleep ended in spring 1914 with a 19 month eruption series culminating in May 22 1915. A towering mushroom cloud rose four miles high. The blast scorched forests and flattened trees along Lost Creek and Hot Creek valleys, turning snow into runoff and flooding lower areas.
