Dante's Peak Filming Locations - The High Lake - Azusa, California  San Gabriel Mountains

The volcano's remote High Lake was filmed at Crystal Lake, in the San Gabriel Mountains north of Los Angeles. A natural lake fed only by snowmelt, prolonged drought had significantly lowered the water level in 2017

------------- 

The film Dante's Peak was filmed largely in or around the town of Wallace, Idaho in 1996, with additional locations in California. This collection recreates and expands my original 2007 edition, comparing scenes from the movie with their real life counterparts, taken in 2017. Still my favorite movie, enjoy!
