Natural Features
Visitors can get a glimpse of area's unique geological features by exploring nearby Newberry National Volcanic Monument. While exploring the Monument, visitors are able to see numerous cinder cones and basalt flows as well as rhyolite flows of obsidian, indicative of a history of spectacular volcanic activity.
Newberry Crater, a 17-square-mile caldera at the summit of the 500-square-mile volcano, is both seismically and geothermally active. Geologists believe the caldera sits over a shallow magma body only 2 to 5 kilometers deep.
At an elevation of 7,985 ft., Paulina Peak, the highest point in the Monument, showcases views of the Oregon Cascades and the High Desert region. Visiting the summit area of Newberry Volcano, visitors will encounter sparkling alpine lakes full of trout and salmon.
