Pipkin (also known as Malpais Crater[1]) is a volcano in California, with activity during the Quaternary.

[4] The 300 feet (91 m) high and 2,000 feet (610 m) wide[5] Pipkin cinder cone probably erupted the lava flows which extend to its north and form a lava flow field which has the appearance of a mesa.

[6] The cone itself consists of lava bombs and scoria with red and black colours.

[5] Lava flows from the vent propagated through Kane Wash[4] and into the Mojave River valley;[7] it is possible that the lava diverted part of the wash into neighbouring Sheep Springs Wash.[8] The cone is the site of a quarry.
