They are within the eastern Sierra Nevada and Inyo National Forest. Volcanic geologyThe Red Cones last erupted approximately 5000 years ago,[2] with both cinder eruption (forming the cones), and a basalt flow from the southern cone, which flowed approximately {{convert|1.5|km|mi|1|sp=us}} towards the upper Middle Fork of the San Joaquin River.[3] The Red Cones are at the southern end of the Mono-Inyo Craters, the magma for the Red Cones shares its origin with the other Mono-Inyo craters.
