Details for: Apaneca Range
The Apaneca Range (also known as the Cuyanausul Range) is seen here from the SE. This elongated group of roughly E-W-trending Pleistocene and Holocene stratovolcanoes lies in western El Salvador between the Santa Ana complex and the Guatemala border. The 5-km-wide Pleistocene Concepción de Ataco caldera lies beyond the flat ridge at the left; to its right are the stratovolcanoes of Cerro Cachio, Cerro de la Rana, Cerro el Aguila, and conical Cerro los Naranjos. The Apaneca Range is the site of the major geothermal field of Ahuachapán. Photo by Lee Siebert, 1999 (Smithsonian Institution).
