Map of Mount Barr, Fraser Valley D, BC, Canada

Mount Barr is one of the numerous magmatic features just north of the Chilliwack batholith. It is part of a large circular igneous intrusion that was placed along the Fraser Fault 16 to 21 million years ago. The intrusion is part of the Pemberton Volcanic Belt, an eroded volcanic belt that formed as a result of subduction of the Farallon Plate starting 29 million years ago.
