Background
Prindle volcano is a small isolated basaltic cinder cone and lava flow in an area of metamorphic and granitic terrain. The cone formed sometime between the early Pleistocene and the about 1900 years before present White River ash that overlies the lava flow; Foster (in Wood and Kienle 1990) considered Prindle to be of Pleistocene age.---
