Mount McLoughlin, Steep stratovolcano in southern Oregon, United States.
Mount McLoughlin rises to 2,894 meters with a symmetrical cone shape from the south and an exposed northern section revealing internal volcanic structures.
The mountain received its name in 1838 after John McLoughlin, who served as Chief Factor for the Hudson's Bay Company in the Pacific Northwest.
The Takelma Native Americans named the peak Mal-sr and believed it to be the dwelling place of Tasuune, their Acorn Woman deity.
The summit trail extends 5 miles through the Sky Lakes Wilderness, requiring winter equipment such as crampons and ice axes during snowy conditions.
The western slopes of Mount McLoughlin function as the municipal watershed for Medford, with melted snow flowing into Big Butte Springs.
