About

Mt. Hood is a stratovolcano whose last major eruptive period was the Old Maid eruption ~200 years ago, just before Lewis and Clark arrived. USGS classifies it as one of the most likely Cascade volcanoes to erupt next. The classic symmetrical cone shape — visible on clear days from downtown Portland — is the result of repeated dome-building eruptions over the past 1.5 million years.
