Negit Island, Mono Lake, California
Photograph by R.A. Bailey

This high aerial view of Negit Island is toward the southwest. Three separate vents each erupted individual dacite lava flows to form three parallel elongate flows. The vents are located on the highest parts of the flows. The lava flows erupted between about 2,000 and 200 years ago. The northwest edge of Paoha Island is visible in upper left.
