Data from the Global Volcanism Program of the Smithsonian Institution
Details for: Bridge River Cones
The Bridge River cones group is within the Garibaldi Volcanic Belt in SW Canada and is shown in the center of this September 2020 Planet Labs satellite image monthly mosaic (N is at the top; this image is approximately 22 km across). Younger lava flows that are potentially post-glaciation are present N of Bridge River. Satellite image courtesy of Planet Labs Inc., 2020 (https://www.planet.com/).

The Bridge River Cones volcanic field consists of a group of small basaltic and trachybasaltic eruptive centers at the extreme northern end of the Garibaldi volcanic belt in SW British Columbia. Pleistocene volcanic necks and cones were Potassium-Argon dated at 0.97 and 0.59 million years ago in the Salal Creek area and display ice-contact features (Lawrence et al., 1984). Tuber Hill is a small subaerial 600,000-year-old basaltic stratovolcano to the N that was constructed on the Bridge River upland when neighboring valleys were filled with ice. Lava flows that overlie poorly consolidated glacial till and appear to post-date the latest glaciation are found immediately N of Bridge River. The youngest flow may be less than 1500 years old (Souther; in Wood and Kienle, 1990).
