This plan represents both a snapshot of Lassen’s interpretation and education program at this time and a roadmap for its development over the next ten years. Goals and recommended actions set forth by this plan are supported by foundational information—Park Purpose, Significances, and Interpretive Themes—established to guide the park in all of its interpretive efforts. This plan is intended to assist staff and stakeholders as they strive to create greater emotional and intellectual connections between visitors and this dynamic park. While this plan is extremely ambitious, the park has many assets and partners that will help to meet the goals and complete the actions that the plan sets forth. These are partnerships that have been nurtured over the years and have grown into strong relationships that support the park’s current—and future—interpretive endeavors. 3 Park Significance These statements reflect the most current understanding of the significant resources at Lassen Volcanic National Park. 1 Lassen Volcanic National Park showcases a dynamic geological landscape containing an intact, accessible network of hydrothermal features. Located in relatively close proximity, 60 extinct and active volcanoes represent all four types recognized by geologists—plug dome, shield, composite, and cinder cone. 2 Lassen Peak violently erupted in 1914 and 1915 and became quiet by 1921.
