View is from the northwest rim of Long Valley caldera looking toward the south. Mammoth Mountain is the broad snow-covered edifice built on the southwest rim of the caldera. This view across the forested west caldera floor (west moat) includes part of the South Deadman flow (lower left) and an unamed cinder cone (middle right). This andesitic cinder cone is breached on its north side.
