THIS VINTAGE PRINT WAS HANGING UP AT OUR LOCAL GROCERY STORE OF RAYS IN 2008, WHEN THEY SOLD TO M&W THEY TOOK ALL THE PICTURES DOWN. THESE ARE BEAUTIFUL BLACK AND WHITE PRINTS MEASURING 42"X42" SEE PICTURES FOR MINOR FLAWS THAT WERE MADE WHEN TAKING THEM DOWN.. THIS PICTURE WOULD LOOK AMAZING HANGING ABOVE A FIREPLACE :) BROKEN TOP IS A GLACIALLY ERODED COMPLEX STRATI PLANO WITH AN ELEVATION OF 9,177 FEET. LIES IN THE "CASCADE VOLCANIC ARC", PART OF THE EXTENSIVE CASCADE RANGE IN THE STATE OF OREGON. LOCATED SOUTHEAST OF THE THREE SISTER PEAKS, THE VOLCANO RESIDES WITHIN THE THREE SISTERS WILDERNESS, IS 20 MILES WEST OF BEND, OREGON IN DESCHUTES COUNTY. ERUPTIVE ACTIVITY STOPPED ROUGHLY 100,000 YEARS AGO, AND CURRENTLY, EROSION BY GLACIERS HAS REDUCED THE VOLCANO'S CONE TO WHERE ITS CONTENTS AREN'T EXPOSED. THERE ARE TWO NAMED GLACIERS ON THE PEAK, BEND AND CROOK GLACIERS. CURRENTLY, THE TWO GLACIERS, LOCATED AT ELEVATIONS OF 7,762 FEET AND 8,209, RESPECTIVELY, CONTINUE TO ERODE THE MOUNTAIN'S INTERIOR CONTENTS. DIVERSE SPECIES OF FLORA AND FAUNA INHABIT THE AREA, WHICH IS SUBJECT TO FREQUENT SNOWFALL, OCCASIONAL RAIN, AND EXTREME TEMPERATURE VARIATION BETWEEN SEASONS.
