The San Quintín Volcanic Field on the NW coast of Baja California contains lava flows and young scoria cones. This view looks south from Volcán Basu to Picacho Vizcaino (surrounded by young lava flows), and Volcán Sudoeste (upper left). These are among the youngest features of the San Quintín field.
