Background
The Crary Mountains consist of two large shield volcanoes, Mount Frakes and Mount Steere and the smaller Mount Rees and Boyd Ridge volcanoes. Mount Steere is dissected, but the younger Mount Frakes is relatively undissected has had flank vent activity as late as 1.7 million Potassium-Argon years ago (LeMasurier and Thomson, 1990).---
