In October 2009 Kelly Maas joined Warren Storkman for one of his infamous Nepal trips. They planned to climb Mera Peak\, a popular trekking peak\, but approached it from an unusual direction. From the sweltering lowlands where they started\, to the frigid windswept Himalayan skyline where they were forced to turn back\, they had a great time walking through beautiful countryside and experiencing warm
Nepalese hospitality. Kelly also had some unexpected adventures.

Not Sponsored by the PCS

Lassen Peak\, the southernmost active volcano in the Cascade Range\,explosively erupted in 1915\, devastating nearby areas and raining volcanic ash as far away as 200 miles to the east.

Lassen National Park\, in addition to prominent volcanic areas\,contains the most spectacular array of thermal features in the Cascade Range including fumaroles\, bubbling mud pots\, and a boiling lake.

A new USGS map shows volcanic centers in unprecedented detail\,enabling development of products to better evaluate and assess regional volcanic hazards.
