Universal Coordinated Time UTC – ZULU is a 24 hour clock . In March, 1946, when I was 20 months old, we moved to Minto, in the Bridge River Valley, BC. Minto is now flooded out by Carpenter Lake a Hydro-Electric Reservoir. My Dad had been hired on the Bridge River Power Project as a heavy-duty mechanic and welder to work on the Lajoie Dam. Most all of that electricity is dropped down into the Lynn Valley, North Vancouver, BC substation (follow the high-tension from just west and above Karen Magnussen Arena; two blocks south, following trails in the green space to https://mapcarta.com/W117564281) ~ So, When you turn on your cellphone, lights and TV please remember to thank my dad, Clarence Fredrick Webb, for sliding around on his back in the minus 40° C degree frozen mud to fix the equipment used to build the Lajoie Dam. My first best friend in Minto was Frenchie, an 75 year old prospector. He delighted in letting me hang around as he, all by himself, built his retirement log cabin. He showed me how and where to find gold, and extract it from the ore. I showed him how to make my grandmother's peanut butter cookies. When I turn two years old, for my birthday present, he had me put out my left hand, palm up. He dropped a small bead of mercury there, for a minute. WOW ! I'd never seen anything like that in my whole life, to date. Placer gold has come from black-sand in the creek and river bottoms. Frenchie helped me figure out so many things. Like, where does all of that black-sand containing gold come from. Up? Those who dance with earthquakes and volcanoes are considered mad by those who cannot smell the sulfur. In February, 1947 he put the pointy end of his shotgun in his mouth and blew his brains out. I still miss him, even to this day.

Ring of Fire Full Documentary

Mount Meager masiff produced the largest volcanic eruption in Canada in the last 10,000 years. About 2,400 years ago, an explosive eruption formed a volcanic crater on its northeastern flank and sent avalanches of hot ash, rock fragments and volcanic gases down the northern flank of the volcano. Evidence for more recent volcanic activity has been documented at the volcano, such as hot springs and earthquakes. The Mount Meager massif has also been the source of several large landslides in the past, including a massive debris flow in 2010 that swept down Meager Creek and the Lillooet  River.

I have been a Wikipedia author and editor since 2003, so I'll use that stuff, but I have no compunction to continue that, as well.  Oh, and meet my Big Brother.

My Big Brother when I lived in Minto. The grizzly bear (Ursus arctos horribilis), also known as the North American brown bear or simply grizzly, is a population or subspecies of the brown bear.  If I ever catch Tyax bear baiting again (2003) there will be HELL to pay.

Many of these volcanoes were created through the tectonic process of subduction whereby dense ocean plates collide with and slide under lighter continental plates. Universe list:

Notes:
(also known as the Rim of Fire or the Circum-Pacific beltis a major area in the basin of the Pacific Ocean where many earthquakes and volcanic eruptions
occur. In a large 40,000 km (25,000 mi) horseshoe shape, it is associated with a nearly continuous series of oceanic trenches, volcanic arcs, and volcanic belts and plate movements. It has 452 volcanoes (more than 75% of the world's active and dormant volcanoes).[1]

About 90%[2] of the world's earthquakes and about 81%[3] of the world's largest earthquakes occur along the Ring of Fire.[4][5]
All but three of the world's 25 largest volcanic eruptions of the last 11,700 years occurred at volcanoes in the Ring of Fire.
[6]
The Ring of Fire is a direct result of
plate tectonics: the movement and collisions of lithospheric plates,[7] especially subduction in the northern portion. The western portion is more complex, with a number of smaller tectonic plates in collision with the Pacific plate from the Mariana Islands, the PhilippinesBougainvilleTonga, and New Zealand.
