Siskiyou county contains Mount Shasta. Mount Shasta is a cone volcano that has had four volcanic cones. It not currently an active volcano, but it is believed that it will erupt again. It is the fourth tallest mountain in California, and it has several glaciers on it.
I would ask for seismic data to help understand what the volcano is doing. This can give us an idea if the volcano is becoming more active or not. I would use absolute dating to determine the age of the lava flows, and this would help determine the last time the cones erupted. I would want to know how big the glaciers are. I would like to know how big the glaciers are to determine how big of an impact they could have if the volcano erupted.
