Is Mt Kosciusko a volcano or a mountain?
Shane
Dear Shane,
I had never heard of Mt. Kosciusko so I looked it up in "Volcanoes of the
World" by Tom Simkin and Lee Seibert. They say only that it is a
satellitic shield vent on Andrus volcano. So, I guess you could say it is
a volcano, but more properly you would say that it is a vent on the flanks
of a larger volcano.
