| The Mount Meager massif 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. |
Mt Meager Massif (southside) Landslide Fly Over. A massif is a group of volcanic peaks. In this case - see MORE THOROUGH below the video on the north side Plinth Peak with is just above Downton Lake)

The Mount Meager massif is a group of volcanic peaks in the Pacific Ranges of the Coast Mountains in southwestern British Columbia, Canada. Part of the Cascade Volcanic Arc of western North America, it is located 150 km (93 mi) north of Vancouver at the northern end of the Pemberton Valley and reaches a maximum elevation of 2,680 m (8,790 ft). The massif is capped by several eroded volcanic edifices, including lava domes, volcanic plugs and overlapping piles of lava flows; these form at least six major summits including Mount Meager which is the second highest of the massif.
Six main summits constitute the Mount Meager massif. The highest and northernmost summit is Plinth Peak with an elevation of 2,680 m (8,790 ft).[1][25] Mount Meager itself is 2,650 m (8,690 ft) in elevation.[25] Capricorn Mountain west of Mount Meager rises with an elevation of 2,570 m (8,430 ft). Just west of Capricorn Mountain lies Mount Job, 2,493 m (8,179 ft) in elevation.[1][25] Pylon Peak with an elevation of 2,481 m (8,140 ft) is south of Capricorn Mountain and Mount Meager.[25] Devastator Peak, also known as The Devastator, has an elevation of 2,315 m (7,595 ft) and is the lowest and southernmost summit of the massif.[1][25]
The Garibaldi Volcanic Belt (GVB) has a long history of eruptions and poses a threat to the surrounding region. Any volcanic hazard ranging from landslides to eruptions could pose a significant risk to humans and wildlife. Although the massif has not erupted for more than 2,000 years, it could produce a major eruption; if this were to happen, relief efforts would be quickly organized. Teams such as the Interagency Volcanic Event Notification Plan (IVENP) are prepared to notify people threatened by volcanic eruptions in Canada.

Taking off from pumice mine about 1 km north of campsite. Fly over of campsite and the ridge we were evac'd from. Fly up the Meager valley to Mt Meager and Capricorn Glacier. You can see the natural lake created by the slide in a few shots. This is what created the Pemberton evacuation warning. Fly back down valley towards Pemberton.

Stan G. Webb - In Retirement© writing under the pseudonym Kulshan©. Kulshan is NOT a Flood Basalt eruptive volcano; rather a glaciated Stratovolcano© It rises to 3,286 meters (10,781 feet) in elevation, Mount Baker is the third highest peak in Washington and the fifth-highest in the Cascade Range.
Following is a video from Facts
in Motion it explains a Flood Basalt Eruptive Volcano
Kulshan is NOT a Flood Basalt eruptions; rather, at a glaciated Stratovolcano with active fumerols near the top. Flood Basalt eruptions are the largest lava eruptions in the history of this planet. In this video you will find out just enormous these eruptions were exactly and what impact they had on Earth and its inhabitants. I will include the sources in Part 2 Thanks for watching. https://creativecommons.org/licenses/...
Our exploration of one of the upper portals of the Bralorne mine in Bralorne BC. The Bralorne property is centred on a gold-quartz vein system. The Bralorne mine, comprising the King, Empire (or Ida May) and Crown workings, operated continuously from 1932 to 1971. Production during this period and from older operations totals 4.9 million tonnes of ore yielding 87.6 million grams of gold and 21.9 million grams of silver, for an average recovery of 16.1 grams per tonne gold and 4.03 grams per tonne silver (MINFILE 092JNE001). The property is a consolidation of 133 Crown-granted claims and fractions, many of which were staked in 1897. The staking began after the discovery of gold-bearing quartz veins on the north bank of the lower course of Cadwallader Creek (Cairnes, 1937). Access to the area at that time was 110 kilometres by difficult trail from the railway. The original lode claims were explored individually or in small groups (the Lorne and Pioneer groups of claims were staked in 1897) and by 1898 almost all the veins that would be mined had been found. Gold was first recovered by hand crushing and panning the oxidized quartz from surface exposures. Adits were developed on the promising leads and gold was won in quantity from the ore by improvising primative mills. At Lorne two 12-foot arrastres were erected driven by a 28-foot overshot water wheel to process in a few tons of ore per day and in 1900 a 5-stamp mill was set up to increase production. On selling the Pioneer property, Arthur Noel purchased the Lorne mine from William Sloan and Dan Hurley. Prior to this the Lorne, King and Woodchuck veins had been successfully worked by Mike Gaynor, Nat Coghlan, William Young, John Williams and E.J. Taylor. In 1910 Lorne Amalgamated Mines Company gained control of the King mine and the adjacent key ground that included the Lorne, Golden King, Woodchuck, Wood Duck, Telephone and Marquis Crown-granted claims. After some shallow surface workings were completed the No.3 adit-crosscut was driven 335 metres to intersect the King vein. Work on the property was facilitated in 1915 when the Pacific Great Eastern Railway reached Lillooet on the Fraser River. Supplies from the coast were then routed 90 kilometres westward by road following the Bridge River. By 1920 some 900 metres of underground drifts and crosscuts had been developed and about 150 kilograms of gold produced, however, increasing sulphide and arsenic content in the veins at depth made gold recovery by amalgamation too low to pay in so remote an area. In 1928 Lorne Gold Mines Limited (Stobie, Furlong and Company) was incorporated and acquired the Alhambra and Blackbird claims, the Empire mine on the Ida May claim and the Coronation mine workings to the southeast. Proceeds from the sale of stock were spent driving a 900-metre adit tunnel 800 feet (245 metres) below the surface showings and by 1929 the principal veins in the King mine were delineated but in 1930 underground development was suspended because of financial difficulties. A new mining era began in 1931 when Lorne sold 60% interest to Austin Taylor and Associates who then organized Bralorne Mines Limited and took control of the property. A 100-ton mill was installed employing blanket concentration and floatation, thus commencing a 40-year period of continuous production (Photo 1). In 1935 milling capacity was increased to 475 tons daily.
This is a video that I have wanted to make for years, and I am so happy with the experience of making it. I visited the old town location of Minto, in the central interior of BC. There is nothing left structurally of the old town because the entire location was flooded by the man made Carpenter Lake, but that does not mean there isn't anything to see. My goal while visiting Minto, was to put the drone in the air and see how well I can map out the ruins and roads of the old town. This was more difficult than I had hoped, but combining what I could see from the air and what I could see from the ground, I was really able to start building this map. While on location, I also wanted to do some metal detecting and see if I could find some old relics. I put on a lot of miles and dug a lot of holes, and it was worth every bit of the effort. I got to see so many remnants from the residents that once called this home, and I was able to dig up some really neat relics as well. As beautiful as the town site is, I cant go without talking about the drive to get there. I have done this drive five times now, and it impresses me more every time I do it. I personally believe that this is the most beautiful drive in British Columbia, and I am so excited to share it with you all. Thank you so much for watching and enjoying.
