Ahh, the Sisters range......Gotta love it. My father is a geology major. Every trip throughout my youth involved some kind of lesson, or information about the earth, and the many layers of millions of years of volcanic activity, storms, erosion, etc., etc. I had just been back in Oregon about 1 year when I saw the Sisters range looking odd, months before the USGS said anything. I remember a clear early summer day, not a cloud in the sky, anywhere, except the one lingering off the sisters range. One lone cloud, not big at all, appeared to be a vaporous cloud. It was a light steam caused by the heat of the bulge melting snow pack more rapidly in that particular spot. I told my wife to look, and I said, "you watch, that mountain will be in the news, very soon" Low and behold, a few months later, I was right. Now, if you like volcanoes, try earth quakes. Real shaky near the epicenter, but man a funky turn inyour stomach many mile from it. Riding the rolling wave of an earth quake can only be described like laying on an air mattress in a pool, and having someone make a huge wave unexpectadly.
