Volcán Apagado

Apagado

Cono piroclástico · Chile · 1210 m

The sparsely vegetated pyroclastic cone at the lower right with a strip of snow on its crater rim is Volcán Apagado, also known as Hualiaque. Seen in an aerial view from the NW with the rugged snow-capped Chilean Andes in the background, it lies in the center of the peninsula between the Gulf of Ancud and the Reloncaví estuary. The pyroclastic cone lies within a 6-km-wide depression breached to the SW. The broad symmetrical Hornopirén volcano, capped by snow fields, lies to the east of Apagado at the left center.

Resumen geológico

Volcán Apagado, also known as Hualiaque, is located W of Hornopirén volcano and SW of Yate on the peninsula between the Gulf of Ancud and the Reloncaví estuary. The sparsely vegetated pyroclastic cone contains a well-preserved summit crater; scoria deposits have a calibrated age of about 2,500 years BP. A 6-km-wide depression open to the SW mentioned by González-Ferrán (1995), and a small lava flow passing through that breach, are not prominent on satellite imagery.
