Parkdale Lava Flow, Parkdale Roadtrippers
In the small town of Parkdale, the unexpected view of a dark wall of lava known as the Parkdale Lava Flow is a surprise to even longtime Oregonians. This dramatic 7,000-year-old flow is among the largest and youngest in the Cascades. The area can be explored off-trail, with access from adjacent forest roads.

The youngest such volcano is the 7-km-long Parkdale lava flow whose vent lies about 12 km north-northeast of the summit of Mount Hood. 500 ka to 100 ka - Construction of much of Mount Hood edifice, partial destruction, and eruption of regional volcanoes

Geology The geology of Parkdale is dominated by the geology of Mount Hood, a nearby stratovolcano about 10 miles (16 km) to the south of the town. A 6,000-year-old lava flow is named after the town. [citation needed] It flowed north from the Upper Hood River Valley.

Oregon Mount Hood is a potentially active volcano close to rapidly growing communities and recreation areas. The most likely widespread and hazardous consequence of a future eruption will be for lahars (rapidly moving mudflows) to sweep down the entire length of the Sandy (including the Zigzag) and White River valleys.

Parkdale Lava Flow by miah66 » April 17th, 2015, 8:23 pm Was messing around on Google Earth and saw this large outflow from Mt Hood. Pretty spectacular! It looks like a headwall of lava, perhaps over 100' high. Anyone familiar with this, or hiked around it? Last edited by miah66 on May 11th, 2015, 10:09 pm, edited 1 time in total.
