It’s just hiding in plain sight, among the #CascadeRange peaks NE of #Seattle and actually visible from the city on good days. A magnificent, slumbering monster, capable of the same sort of violence as #MountStHelens/#WyEast, but so remote that it’s only been possible to install one monitoring station so far.
Every #volcano deserves our respect, awe, and reverence.

The Hinman Glacier, in the Cascades east of Seattle, is now no more. It's the "biggest North Cascade glacier to completely disappear."

#FossilAdventCalendar Day 17
This #whale-sized #marine #reptile in the #RoyalTyrrellMuseum is the #ichthyosaur Shastasaurus sikkaniensis. Unusually, it was not only one of the earliest members of its group, but one of the very largest. Its #species name comes from where it was found, along the Sikanni Chief River which flows out of the #RockyMountains of #BritishColumbia 🇨🇦. Its #genus name comes from Mt. #Shasta in the #CascadeRange, where other species of this Triassic titan have been found.
