Well they keep finding the Volcanic Activity in the Inyo National Forest. Yet they will not stop building the multi million dollar Condo's at Mammoth Lakes. The City is resting just N/E of an area that is projected to have a Volcano Cone protruding up out of the side of the hill where the usually large and thriving Jeffrey Pines are dead. Yet they keep building those Multi Million Dollar Condo's. The Geological studies that have been done say that the closest place to the Magma to the earth's core is in Mammoth Lakes in the Owens Valley, along Hot Creek. the Famed Hot Ditch just S/of Bishop Ca. and in China Lake. where they do or did Nuclear testing. Isn't that great Knowledge to know. Well take care have a great life.

Surprise geysers and hot springs close river near Mammoth Lakes
Associated Press
MAMMOTH LAKES, Calif. - A popular section of a warm water creek that bubbles with hot springs was closed to bathers after geysers began spouting from the riverbed.
A 200-yard area around the Hot Creek Geologic Site was fenced off June 6 after Inyo National Forest rangers noticed geysers and steam welling up.
Geologists said the eruptions were probably due to heavy runoff from snow colliding with heat rising from magma miles below the valley floor.
There were no signs of increased seismic activity in the region, which lies within the crater of a long-dormant volcano, according to a U.S. Geological Survey report released Tuesday.
The area about 7 miles southeast of the Mammoth Lakes resort town is a popular recreation spot.
