Gabrielse Cone is a remarkably fresh, clearly postglacial monogenetic cinder cone, located in the Tuya Volcanic Field in British Columbia, Canada. It is about 4000NaN0 in diameter and has a central crater about 300NaN0 deep. It is Holocene in age and to its northeast appears to be breached with the remnants of a lava flow. The cone is near the headwaters of Iverson Creek.
Gabrielse Cone is named after Hu Gabrielse, a Canadian geologist who first identified the cone.[1]
