I noticed your change about Slag Hill and your being uncertain as to whether it was in the icefield or not, so I looked it up in the Volcanoes of Canada catalogue, found its coords and added them so I could see them in AcmeMapper. The icefield itself doesn't have any formal limits, and there's a ridge between the main icemass and teh smaller icefield that Slag Hill is at the northwest corner of; but in "mountain range" terms, speaking of the icefield as a massif, it's definitely part of the "icefield" (massif). As you know there are no formally named subranges between the Garibaldi Ranges and the Clendenning Range but like the Bridge River Icecap and Pemberton Icecap, they "double" as names for the massifs they sit on top of; either way Slag Hill is at the northern end or northern end of the massif that teh Powder Mountain Icefield sites on top of. Ring, as I recall, is at the southwestern end of the Pemberton Icecap....Skookum1 (talk) 16:03, 1 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]
I thought Slag Hill was at the northern end of the Powder Mountain Icefield. What got me uncertain was because at the northernmost end of the icefield (where Slag Hill is located) there is a lack of glacial ice compared to the rest of the icefield. The Pail and Cauldron domes seem to be located in the middle of the icefield. The eastern portion of Pail Dome (i.e. Pail Dome East) seems to be almost ice free from the icefield, but eventually becomes buried under the icefield to reappear on the western side of the icefield. This portion (i.e. Pail Dome West) is similar to its eastern portion (i.e. almost free from glacial ice) so the central portion of the dome lies under the icefield. Cauldron Dome is similar but its eastern portion is almost buried under the icefield and its central and western portions are largely ice free. BT (talk) 18:16, 1 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Just use wording if it's not technically "in" the icefield proper; in teh bivouac usage (coined by me) we called the range/massif by the icefield crowning it; I'll wager that given a good round of global warming-induced icefield melting, there's other volcanoes under all of the icefields in this region. I just added coords from the Catalogue to the Cauldron Dome article; suggest you pls take the time to do that across the board and also create {{Mount Cayley Volcanic Field}} and an associated category, then use {{GeoGroupTemplate}} on the page/template/category each....then you can see them all at once....Skookum1 (talk) 20:05, 1 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Actually, that is what I'm about to work on. I have been gathering information to start an article for the Mount Cayley field since last night. Would a template really appropiate for this topic though? There is only at least 8 volcano articles related to the Cayley field: Mount Cayley, Ember Ridge, Mount Fee, Ring Mountain, Little Ring Mountain, Pali Dome and Cauldron Dome. If such a template was created it would be quite small. I'm also working on a map of the field to post in the article. BT (talk) 20:29, 1 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Check File:Mount Cayley volcanic field NASA.png out. I made this tonight but it's not the Cayley field map I mentioned above. Perhaps you can figure out if there are any more volcanic peaks in the Powder Mountain Icefield from that. BT (talk) 01:19, 3 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]
