- The Coso Range of eastern California is located immediately south of Owens Lake, east of the Sierra Nevada, and west of the Argus Range. The southern part of the range lies in the restricted Naval Air Weapons Station China Lake and the northern part of the range is designated as the Coso Range Wilderness. The mountains include Coso Peak, at 8,160 feet (2,487 m) above sea level, as well as and , both more than 7,400 ft (2,300 m) in height. The range is underlain principally by Mesozoic granitic rocks that are partly veneered by upper Cenozoic volcanic rocks of the Coso Volcanic Field. The volcanic units (in apparent decreasing age) include (1) widespread basaltic flows, (2) dacitic flows and tuff, and (3) rhyolitic domes and flows and basaltic cones and flows. These volcanic rocks are encompassed by an oval-shaped zone of late Cenozoic ring faulting that measures about 24 miles (39 km) east to west and 28 miles (45 km) north to south and that defines a structural basin. Most of the Coso Range and a slice of the adjacent Sierra Nevada lie within this ring structure. The youngest volcanic rocks are Pleistocene and, with associated active fumaroles, occupy a north-trending structural and topographic ridge about 11.2 by 6.2 miles (18 by 10 km) near the center of the basin. The ring structure and associated volcanic rocks suggest a large underlying magma chamber that has periodically erupted lava to the surface during the past few million years. (en)
- Le chaînon Coso, en anglais Coso Range, est une chaîne de montagnes située dans l'est de la Californie, au sud du lac Owens (asséché), à l'est de la Sierra Nevada, et à l'ouest du chaînon Argus. La partie méridionale de la chaîne est comprise dans le terrain militaire de . Les principaux sommets sont Coso Peak, Joshua Flat et Silver Peak. La région est très difficile d'accès, faute de route goudronnée : l'armée estime que moins de 7 % de la région a été explorée. (fr)
