Draft version: Major volcanic vents in the Owyhee field area (east sector)


Here is a map for the research group to review. This includes several sites mentioned in the paleomag update recently posted on Yeehow Central. Review it for naming conventions, placement, etc. Note also the addition of Danner Butte...an informal name for a likely vent associated with a youngish flow. Previously the lava related to that vent was grouped with that from Rocky/Lava Butte, but this was not feasible as it required a lot of lava to flow a long way uphill. The boundary between the two is not shown on this map, but I am working on it (Note: N. Bondre identified this vent as SH, but I have forgotten why...looking into that too). Now I know: Skinner Hill.
