29 October 1792 - A BRITISH VISITOR NAMES OREGON'S HIGHEST PEAK:
Britain's Lt. William Broughton, traveling in Captain Vancouver's
company, spots a "very high, snowy mountain," as he stands on
present-day Sauvie Island in the American Northwest's Columbia River.
He'll name the stratovolcano 'Mount Hood' in tribute to British admiral
Samuel Hood.

Mount Hood is a dormant stratovolcano in the Cascade Volcanic Arc. It
was formed by a subduction zone on the Pacific coast and rests in the
Pacific Northwest region of the United States. It is located about 50 mi
(80 km) east-southeast of Portland, on the border between Clackamas and
Hood River counties. In addition to being Oregon's highest mountain, it
is one of the loftiest mountains in the nation based on its prominence,
and it offers the only year-round lift-served skiing in North America.
