Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Infobox mountain
Aspen Butte is a steep-sided shield volcano in the Cascade Range of southern Oregon. It is located Шаблон:Convert south of Pelican Butte and Шаблон:Convert southeast of Mount McLoughlin. It rises over Шаблон:Convert above the nearby shore of Upper Klamath Lake. Ice Age glaciers carved three large cirques into the north and northeast flanks of the mountain removing most of the original summit area including any evidence of a crater. The summit is now the high point along the curving ridge which bounds the southern edge of the cirques above steep cliffs.
Aspen Butte is the highest of four overlapping shield volcanoes within the Mountain Lakes Wilderness all of which have been carved to varying degrees by glaciers. The other volcanoes are Шаблон:Convert Mount Harriman,[1][2] Шаблон:Convert Crater Mountain and Шаблон:Convert Greylock Mountain. Another peak, Шаблон:Convert Mount Carmine,[3] which lies just over Шаблон:Convert to the north of Aspen Butte, is actually not a separate volcano but the highest remnant of the north flank of the Aspen Butte volcano separated from it by two glacial cirques. Little Aspen Butte, a Шаблон:Convert satellite cone, rises on the southern flanks of the main volcano separated from it by a Шаблон:Convert pass.
