How the volcanoe was formed ?
Wizard Island is a volcanic cinder cone which forms an island at the west end of Crater Lake in Crater Lake National Park, Oregon. Wizard Island was created after Mount Mazama, a large complex volcano , erupted violently approximately 7,700 years ago, forming its Caldera which now contains Crater Lake. Following the cataclysmic caldera-forming eruption, which left a hole about 4,000 feet deep where the mountain had once stood, a series of smaller eruptions over the next several hundred years formed several cinder cones on the caldera floor.
