Kana Cone
Kana Cone is a red nested cinder cone in northern British Columbia, Canada, located northeast of Eve Cone in Mount Edziza Provincial Park.[1] The name of the cone was adopted 2 January 1980 on National Topographic System map 104G/12 after being submitted to the BC Geographical Names office by the Geological Survey of Canada, although the cone was labelled as Ashwell Cone on a 1988 Geological Survey of Canada map by Canadian volcanologist Jack Souther.[1][2]
Porphyritic basalt lava from Kana Cone flowed north and blocked the Klastline River, which incised the lava flow and exposed 20 metres (66 ft) of columnar basalt.[3]
