Mount Hua
Hua Shan (simplified Chinese: 华山; traditional Chinese: 華山; pinyin: Huà Shān, sometimes spoken Huá Shān) is located in the Shaanxi Province, about 120 kilometres east of the city of Xi'an, near the city Huayin in China. Also known as Xi Yue, The Western Sacred Mountain, it is the western mountain of China's Five Sacred Taoist Mountains, and has a long history of religious significance. Originally classified as having three peaks, in modern times the mountain is classified as five main peaks, of which the highest is the South Peak at 2160 m.
Huashan is located near the southeast corner of the Ordos Loop section of the Yellow River basin, south of the Wei River valley, at the eastern end of the Qinling Mountains, in southern Shaanxi province. It is part of the Qin Ling Mountain Range that divides not only northern and southern Shaanxi, but also China.
Mount Taranaki, or Mount Egmont, is an active but quiescent stratovolcano in the Taranaki region on the west coast of New Zealand's North Island. The 2518-metre-high mountain is one of the most symmetrical volcanic cones in the world. Because of its resemblance to Mount Fuji Taranaki provided the backdrop for the movie The Last Samurai. The last eruption was in the 1850s or 1860s. Egmont National Park surrounds the mountain.

Mount Adams - Washington (12,281 feet / 3,743 m)
Mount Adams was named after the second President of the United States, John Adams.
From: Hoblitt, et.al., 1987, Volcanic Hazards with Regard to Siting Nuclear-Power Plants in the Pacific Northwest: USGS Open-File Report 87-297
Mount Adams is composed of lava flows and fragmental rocks of basaltic andesite and andesite; numerous satellitic vents on the flanks of the volcano have erupted rocks ranging from basalt to dacite. Most of the main cone is younger than 220,000 years. Seven postglacial lava flows issued from flank vents, the youngest of which is between 6,850 and 3,500 years old. Debris avalanches and lahars affected several valleys around the volcano during postglacial time; the longest lahar extended at least 52 kilometers from the volcano. A large amount of hydrothermally altered material in this and one other lahar and in one debris avalanche implies they originated as avalanches of wet, altered, clay-rich debris from near the summit. The youngest such event was a debris avalanche that descended the southwest flank in 1921. Numerous debris flows generated by glacial and meteorologic processes occur frequently at Mount Adams, but typically affect areas within only a few kilometers of the volcano. Postglacial eruptions and weak, diffuse fumarolic emissions in the summit area suggest that the volcano is capable of erupting again.

Mount Campion National Forest is located at the at the high plateau of Roscommon Ridge to the north-west of Mount Campion and north-east of Mount Campanula. I followed the road up the mountain from the national park (well, road .... there were two wheel tracks) towards the park center and ended up above Petovsky Falls. Above me was then the top of Mount Campanula, so i followed the road up........

Mount Rushmore South Dakota Oct 1998, from left to right, George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, Theodore Roosevelt, and Abraham Lincoln. The figureheads were sculptured by Danish-American Gutzon Borglum along with his son Lincoln Borglum between the years 1927-1941. There were plans to continue the scultures to waist height but funds ran out soon after Gutzon passed away in 1941, leaving just the figureheads as seen today but still very spectacularly impressive.
Mount St. Helens erupted on 18 May 1980, devastating this entire area. The explosive flow of shock wave, heat, and lava would have reached and overrun my vantage point in a matter of minutes. 57 people died as a result of the eruption.
The mountain is the most active volcano of the Cascade Range, and pressure is again building under the caldera, forming and enlarging a dome there. In fact, it is possible to see a minor eruption at the dome, which has been going on for a few years.
