Kendrick Peak is a silicic lava dome, indicating that its eruptions involved viscous rather than fluid flows. It is 10,418 feet high. The eruptions occurred between about 2.7 and 1.4 million years ago. It is primarily composed of dacite and rhyolite flows.
At 10:53 AM, my friends Dave McGowan and Mike O'Leary, and I hiked 9.2 miles round-trip to the summit. It took us 2 hours and 22 minutes to reach the summit. The entire hike took us 4 hours and 47 minutes.
