Map of selected volcanic features of the Auckland Volcanic Field. Clicking on the map enlarges it, and enables mouseover of volcano name/wikilink. The type of volcanic eruption (some are composite) is indicated by scoria cone (red #ff0000), or phreatomagmatic eruptions tuff ring (red-brown #a52a2a), maar (purple #990099) and basaltic shield ...
Mackenzie, Muschalik & Broesche (2021) provided comments on the 2018 report in three separately authored sections. [4] Broesche believes that Yellowstone should be ranked higher due to the size of the volcano and the popularity of Yellowstone National Park, and Muschalik considers Mount Rainier to be just as dangerous as Kilauea due to its proximity to large population centers in Washington.

It is a product of subglacial volcanism during the Pleistocene period when this area was covered by thick glacial ice, forming a subglacial volcano that never broke through the overlying glacial ice known as a subglacial mound. Nuthinaw is a Tahltan name meaning Cariboo fence went right into mountain. [1]
The volcano erupted most recently in 1992, but there is still fumarolic activity at the base of Lava Point and there are hot springs North-East of the caldera. [1] In March 1996, an earthquake swarm was followed by deformation of the volcanic edifice, including a lowering of the eastern side and a rise of the western side of the volcano.
