Mt. Etna

11 Sep 2019 4 6 553
No, not _that_ Mt. Etna! This is a low peak off the Pacific Crest Trail in California, toward the vague northern end of the Sierra Nevada. It's been mapped as a volcanic plug. I don't know how it got that name--maybe a 49er with a taste for the classics! The inset shows a view from a distance, with a nice flag tree for foreground interest.
