⛰️ Williams Cone

Williams Cone is a cinder cone on the northeastern flank of Mount Edziza in Cassiar Land District of northwestern British Columbia, Canada. It has an elevation of 2,100 metres and is one of several volcanic cones in the Desolation Lava Field at the northern end of the Big Raven Plateau. Situated southeast of the community of Telegraph Creek, it lies in Mount Edziza Provincial Park, one of the largest provincial parks in British Columbia. A roughly 13-kilometre-long (8.1-mile) lava flow travelled down the northern side of the Big Raven Plateau from Williams Cone around 630 CE and temporarily dammed the Klastline River. Ejecta from an eruption column was blown eastward by a strong westerly wind, some of which was deposited on the eastern flank of the cone.
