DID YOU KNOW?
Mount Warning is the central volcanic remnant of an ancient shield volcano, the Tweed Volcano,. Which would have been about 1,900 m (6,200 ft) above sea level or just under twice the height of the current mountain. This volcano erupted around 23 million years ago. As the mountain’s central vent cooled, it shrank, forming a depression at the top that has greatly eroded.
