Opal Cone is a cinder cone located on the southeast flank of Mount Garibaldi in the Coast Mountains of British Columbia, Canada. It is the source of a 15 km (9 mi) long broad dacite lava flow with prominent wrinkled ridges. The lava flow is unusually long for a silicic lava flow.

The Iskut volcanic field is a group of volcanoes and lava flows on and adjacent to the Alaska–British Columbia border in the Boundary Ranges of the Coast Mountains. All the volcanoes in this volcanic field are situated in British Columbia along the Iskut and Unuk rivers and their tributaries, with lava flows having reached Alaska. The oldest volcanoes in the Iskut volcanic field are Little Bear Mountain and Hoodoo Mountain, which are 146,000 and 85,000 years old, respectively. Younger volcanic centres include Second Canyon, King Creek, Tom MacKay Creek, Snippaker Creek, Iskut Canyon, Cone Glacier, Cinder Mountain and Lava Fork, all of which formed in the last 70,000 years. All of the volcanoes are mafic in composition except for Hoodoo Mountain which consists of peralkaline rocks. The latest volcanic eruption took place from the Lava Fork volcano in 1800, although an uncertain 1904 eruption is also attributed to this volcano.

Williams Cone is a satellite cone of Mount Edziza, located 36 km (22 mi) east of Telegraph Creek. It lies just off the northern edge of the Tencho Icefield and is one of the many postglacial cinder cones that lie on the Mount Edziza volcanic complex. Williams Cone last erupted about 1,350 years ago along with other nearby volcanoes, such as the well-preserved Eve Cone.

Sidas Cone is a cinder cone on the Big Raven Plateau at the northern end of Mount Edziza Provincial Park in British Columbia, Canada. Its name, meaning "cut oneself with a knife" in the Tahltan language, is descriptive of the breach that has cut the cone into two symmetrical halves.

Machmell River Cone is a cinder cone in the Silverthrone Caldera complex in the Pacific Ranges section of the Coast Mountains in British Columbia, Canada. It is believed the volcano last erupted during the Holocene, making it one of the most recent eruptions of the Silverthrone complex.

Kana Cone is a red nested cinder cone in northern British Columbia, Canada, located northeast of Eve Cone in Mount Edziza Provincial Park. The name of the cone was adopted 2 January 1980 on National Topographic System map 104G/12 after being submitted to the BC Geographical Names office by the Geological Survey of Canada, although the cone was labelled as Ashwell Cone on a 1988 Geological Survey of Canada map by Canadian volcanologist Jack Souther.

Cinder Cliff is a cinder cone in northern British Columbia, Canada. It is thought to have last erupted during the Holocene period and is part of the Mount Edziza volcanic complex.

Icefall Cone is a cinder cone in northern British Columbia, Canada. It is thought to have last erupted during the Holocene period and forms part of the Mount Edziza volcanic complex.

Ridge Cone is a cinder cone in northern British Columbia, Canada. It is thought to have last erupted in the Holocene period and is part of the Mount Edziza volcanic complex.

The Triplex Cones are a group of three cinder cones in northern British Columbia, Canada. They are thought to have last erupted during the Holocene epoch.

Twin Cone is a cinder cone in northern British Columbia, Canada. It is thought to have last erupted in the Holocene period.

Cache Hill is a cinder cone in northern British Columbia, Canada. It is thought to have last erupted in the Holocene period. Once used as an airdrop for food and supplies by the Geological Survey of Canada, hence its name, it is located north of Raspberry Pass in Mount Edziza Provincial Park.
