Level Mountain is the most voluminous eruptive center of the Stikine volcanic belt in NW British Columbia. The massive volcano covers an area of 1,800 km2 SW of Dease Lake and N of Telegraph Creek. An 860 km3 bimodal Miocene-to-Pliocene stratovolcano with several eruptive centers caps a Miocene basaltic shield. Following extensive glacial dissection and emplacement of late-Pliocene silicic lava domes, lesser activity continued into the Quaternary. More than 20 Tertiary-to-Holocene eruptive centers have been identified in the central portion of Level Mountain and on its flanks. The broad dissected summit region consists of trachytic and rhyolitic lava domes and was considered to have several minor basaltic vents of postglacial age (Hamilton and Scafe, 1977), although Edwards and Russell (2000) considered Holocene activity to be uncertain.
