Sintesi geologica
Volcán Apagado, also known as Hualiaque, is located W of Hornopirén volcano and SW of Yate on the peninsula between the Gulf of Ancud and the Reloncaví estuary. The sparsely vegetated pyroclastic cone contains a well-preserved summit crater; scoria deposits have a calibrated age of about 2,500 years BP. A 6-km-wide depression open to the SW mentioned by González-Ferrán (1995), and a small lava flow passing through that breach, are not prominent on satellite imagery.
