		Holocene volcanism in the Cascades extends from the Garibaldi Volcanic Belt in southern British Columbia to the Lassen volcanic complex in northern California.
		The existence, position, and recurrent activity of the Cascade volcanoes are generally though to be related to the convergence of shifting crustal plates.
		Snow-clad Mount Hood dominates the Cascade skyline from the Portland metropolitan area to the wheat fields of Wasco and Sherman Counties.

		The cascade which Hector's party saw from their campsite here a century and a half ago is still flowing and the meadow, although not as peaceful a setting as it was, looks much the same as it did when Hector camped here.
		Cascade Mountain looms over the meadow and this is not the best spot from which to see the entire mountain.
		Cascade and Rundle are the two classic scrambles at Banff, and since the first ascent in 1887 by Tom Wilson, thousands have probably tramped to the top.

	Washington DGER: Southern Cascades
		Basalts of the Columbia Basin lap onto the southern Cascades to the east, and the Puget Lowland is situated to the west.
		The mountain is characterized by repeated explosive silicic volcanism with pyroclastic flows, widespread tephra deposits, and dacitic dome growth.
		As the mountain continued to bulge, a major eruption was predicted, and the Spirit Lake resort area was evacuated.

	Cascade Falls
		Cascade Falls has been a major goal of mine since I started ice climbing a few years ago.
		It is supposedly one of the best WI3 routes in Alberta and it's proximity to Banff and small approach make it a popular route.
		Our initial plan was to head to Haffner or Heart Creek after Cascade but the lure of the Grizzly Paw was too much to beer/bear.

	Skiing the Cascade Volcanoes: Snowfall and Snowdepth
		The most well-known Cascade snow record is certainly the 1140" snowfall at Mount Baker Ski Area during the 1998-99 season, which is a world record for seasonal snowfall at any measurement site (see this plot of snowfall and snowdepth during that season).
		Of particular note is that according to the PRISM model, the maximum precipitation anywhere in the Cascade Range appears to be the 140-180+ inches occurring near Glacier Peak, which surprisingly exceeds that shown on Mounts Baker and Rainier (both noted for their world-record snowfalls).
		The cause is clearly due to rain shadowing by the Klamath Mountains located to their southwest, which receive 3-4 times as much precip as this portion of the Cascades despite their somewhat lower summit elevations.

	Hypolimnetic Injection - 1994-95
		If these results continue to occur on a yearly basis, the city of Cascade will surely suffer, which is why we felt it was time to step in and do something for the reservoir and the town.
		Cascade sits at an elevation of approximately 4,000 feet and the mountains around it quickly rise to 9,000 feet.
		The mountain creek water that we inject into the reservoir will allow the bacteria to remain living, so the excess phosphate will not be released back into the reservoir, allowing for a clean and oxygenated epilimnion, which will result in high numbers of fish.

	Crater Lake National Park - Student Study Guide (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22)
		The volcanoes of the Cascade Range are the visible evidence of what geologists call "plate tectonics." The earth's surface is actually broken up into many huge plates, all floating on top of the earth's molten interior.
		As underlying support for the mountain was lost, the walls of the volcano began to collapse inward, creating an enormous basin or "caldera." The mountain that had taken hundreds of thousands of years to build probably collapsed in just a few days.
		While snowfall is common in the Cascade Mountains, Crater Lake National Park is one of the snowiest areas in the entire Northwest.

		The top of a mountain that was built over hundreds of thousands of years “disappeared” in perhaps just a few days.
