Hi guys, as someone who grew up in Vancouver, B.C I became interested in the region and I am curious why you do not show Mt Baker as a dormant, potentialy explosive volcano. It was last active (along with Mt St Helens) from 1854 to 1870. There was also a huge earthquake in 1876 (all dates approx) at Agassiz, BC about 30 miles north of Mt Baker.

Dear John,

I used the Searcher to see what we had about Mt Baker in VolcanoWorld. We do mention the activity in 1975 Mt. Baker is not (yet) listed in Exploring Earth's Volcanoes because we don't have any pictures of it. If you have some photos and wish to share them we can write some text and post it in VolcanoWorld.
