Thick deposits of Holocene basaltic tephra originating from an unknown volcanic center have been found near Crow Lagoon, ~40 km N of Prince Rupert near the southern tip of the SE Alaskan panhandle. The deposits are located along the S side of the Khutzeymateen Inlet. Ballistically emplaced bombs imply a nearby source, which remains unidentified (Souther and Weiland, 1993).
