Lone Cone is an extinct cinder cone, located Unit km|6|0 north of Tofino and Unit km|7|0 northwest of Mount Colnett on the western peninsula of Meares Island, British Columbia, Canada. [ [http://www.bivouac.com/MtnPg.asp?MtnId=7148 Lone Cone] in the Canadian Mountain Encyclopedia] The volcano has not had an eruption for thousands of years and has always been a noticeable landmark to all inhabitants with its looming presence on the north end of Meares Island. The early pioneers believed that if there were clouds blocking the summit then there would be approaching good weather. [ [http://www.tofinohostel.com/tofinoclayoquot.htm Accommodation in Tofino BC.
