	Skiing the Cascade Volcanoes: Lassen Peak
		Brokeoff Mountain and Mount Diller are the highest remnants of this formerly 11000 ft (3400 m) progenitor volcano, the bulk of which was eroded away by repeated glaciations during the past several hundred-thousand years.
		Brokeoff Mountain is the second highest summit in the park, with the sheer cliffs of its north side presenting a spectacularly rugged profile from the park road.
		Contrary to its name, the mountain did not form in a sudden collapse, but by the steady erosion of glaciers in the north side cirque, the same forces which leveled the rest of the Tehama stratovolcano over the ages.

		This eruption is thought to have produced a small caldera on the northern flank of Brokeoff volcano that is now filled by two subsequent sequences of lava comprising the dacitic dome field.

		The Lassen volcanic center consists of the ancient Brokeoff (or Mount Tehama) stratovolcano, a 6-km-wide caldera largely filled by a dacitic lava dome field, and peripheral small andesitic shield volcanoes and pyroclastic cones.
		Beginning 400,000 years ago activity shifted to the north flank of Brokeoff, where episodic, more silicic eruptions produced a small caldera and field of a dozen dacitic lava domes along the inferred margin of the caldera, including Bumpass Mountain, Mount Helen, Ski Heil Peak, and Reading Peak.
		The major remnants, Brokeoff Mountain, Mount Diller, Mount Conard, and Diamond Peak, enclose a central depression that marks the position of Brokeoff volcano, which was approximately 3,350 meters (10,921 feet) high, had a basal diameter of approximately 12 kilometers (7.5 miles).
