The Caspian Sea is the world's largest lake and its level has changed numerous times through its history. As it rose during the late Pleistocene, it inundated large sections of the semi-desert of western Kazakhstan, cutting cliffs that later eroded and fell.

  • The deep blue color of Crater Lake is visible in this early spring aerial view over Crater Lake National Park, Oregon. Crater Lake, located in the caldera of what was once Oregon's Mount Mazama, is the deepest lake in the United States and the seventh deepest in the world. Its deep blue color results from the clarity of the water. The water is so clear that sunlight travels deep into the lake, losing all but the blue wavelengths in the process. Crater Lake has a maximum depth of 1,946 feet (593 meters). Wizard Island, a volcanic cinder cone that rises about 755 feet (230 meters) above the lake, is visible at the bottom-center of the lake in this image.

  • The Three Sisters, a cluster of three volcanic peaks in central Oregon, are bathed in alpenglow as the full moon sets into the Belt of Venus just before sunrise in this aerial view. The three peaks are the third-, fourth- and fifth-highest peaks in Oregon. Of the three, the South Sister, visible on the left, is the tallest with an elevation of 10,385 feet (3,157 meters) and is also known as Charity. The Middle Sister, also known as Hope, is the shortest with an elevation of 10,047 feet (3,062 meters). The North Sister, also known as Faith, is slightly taller at 10,085 feet (3,074 meters). The Three Sisters are unusual in that the volcanic peaks are in a dense cluster; volcanoes in the Cascade Range are typically spaced out with 40 to 60 miles (60 to 100 kilometers) of distance between them. Of the three peaks, only the South Sister is likely to become active again. The last eruption was 50 B.C. The Three Sisters are part of the Three Sisters Wilderness, Oregon's second-largest wilderness area.

Lassen Peak itself stands near Mount Tehama, which was a stratovolcano that was once at least 1,000 feet taller than Lassen Peak is now. Mount Tehama is now known as Brokeoff Mountain, and is visible to the left of Lassen Peak in this image.

  • This aerial view of Oregon's Mount Hood illustrates how rapidly it rises from sea level to 11,249 feet (3,429 m). Hood is Oregon's tallest mountain. The USGS considers it a "potentially active" volcano, with as much as 7 percent chance it will erupt within the next 30 years.

Mount Baker, which is 10,781 feet (3,286 meters) tall, has the second-most thermally active crater of any volcano in the Cascade Range, behind only Mount St. Helens. Baker Lake gets its turquoise color from glacial silt, which gets trapped in its water.
