About Aguilera

Aguilera, located west of Lake Argentina and NE of Peel Fjord, is part of the Austral Volcanic Zone (AVZ) in the southernmost Chilean Andes. Geochemical evidence indicated that the dacitic volcano was the source of a major late Holocene tephra layer that was erupted around 3,200 years ago (Stern, 2008).
