Talk:Watts Point volcanic centre

Title should be Watts Point volcanic centre
If that's what it is, that's what it should be called; as with other parallels elsewhere, the name of this article currently refers to have a place. That it has a volcanic character can be mentioned as a geographic feature can be mentioned in the "place" article; if there's nothing else to encyclopedia about Watts Point e.g. re the highway, the railway, marine history, native culture, then this article's in need of a name change anyway; volcanic centre could use a definition too, since it obviously refers to something like a non-montane volcano - what do you call it, a subduction volcano? That is to say, a volcanic feature, though not a volcano.Skookum1 07:54, 18 January 2007 (UTC)


 * PS is tufa volcanic? - linking that so I can check it out. If it is there's a Rexmount Bluff in the Bridge River Country made out of the stuff (pic later).Skookum1 07:54, 18 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Aha it was tuff that I was thinking about, and that's what Rexmount Bluff is made out of. There's ash deposits throughout the upper Bridge basin, which I guess is where that came from, i.e the Bridge River cones, although this is a good sixty miles east, right under the west flank of the Shulaps Range, and quite a bit in the lower too, below the canyon; (canyon pic on Bridge River) makes me wonder about the conical shape of Rex Peak, and also Big Dog Mountain and Big Sheep Mountain in the Shulaps Range}Shulaps; and Poison Mountain and Red Mountain and....ever heard of Black Dome Mountain? linking that because there may be an article on it; it's some kind of chemical spring, maybe thermal, the last "peak" (summit really) in the Camelsfoot Range, in the angle of Churn Creek and the Fraser just by Big Bar Ferry; fossilized but something like an old geyser crystallization; staked out for some rare chemical in the mineral complex; google it for sure just out of interest; quite the curiosity; not as odd as the microbialites in Pavilion Lake, but getting up there.Skookum1 08:00, 18 January 2007 (UTC)

I think you're right about the name, the only published paper about it is this one, http://dsp-psd.communication.gc.ca/Collection-R/GSC-CGC/M44-2000/M44-2000-A20E.pdf, which calls it Watts Point volcanic centre. I'll go ahead and make the move and fix the the 5 links which lead to the page, then add the ref to the article. --Seattle Skier (talk) 09:42, 19 March 2007 (UTC)

 * ✅, though I haven't matched the precision of your coordinates, which are far too precise for a feature of this size. Deor (talk) 07:26, 5 November 2013 (UTC)
