Future Eruptions in California's Long Valley Area -- What's Likely? U.S. Geological Survey Fact Sheet 073-97
Long Valley Caldera and the Mono-Inyo Craters chain form a large volcanic complex in eastern California that has had persistent earthquake activity and ground uplift in recent decades. Volcanoes have been active in the area for millions of years, and future eruptions are certain to occur. When the next eruption in the area does occur, it will most likely be small and from a site in the Mono-Inyo chain. -- Hill, et.al., 1997
