The north flank of Mount Hood contains the Eliot Glacier, with a series of prominent glacial moraines at its base in this 1987 photo. During the past 1,800 years eruptions have been restricted to vents on the SW flank and have included dome growth, collapse, and debris flows. Photo by Willie Scott, 1987 (U.S. Geological Survey).
