It is a volcano that last erupted according to most historical accounts +/-1790. Some scientific information indicates that the next prior eruption, perhaps in the late 1400s to late 1500s, was the one that really blew the top off the mountain, that it was around 15,000 feet and is now around 10,000 feet, but since then erosion has been the primary cause of the crater's current configuration.
