Davis Lake volcanic field, Cinder cone field in Oregon, US.

The Davis Lake volcanic field contains three distinct lava flows and scoria cones, with the northernmost flow creating a natural dam for Davis Lake.

The most recent volcanic activity in the Davis Lake field occurred between 5,300 and 5,600 years ago, based on charcoal samples collected beneath cinder deposits.

Scientists and geologists frequently study this volcanic field to understand the patterns of eruptions and formations within the Cascade Volcanic Arc system.

Visitors can access the volcanic field through nearby towns of Gilchrist and La Pine, where geological information and guidance are available.

The north-trending alignment of volcanic formations extends for 20 kilometers and features consistent chemical composition across all three lava flows.
