'''Armadillo Peak''' is a 7.5-million-year-old [[caldera]], located about 3 km north of [[Bourgeaux Creek]] and northeast of [[Raspberry Pass]], [[British Columbia]], [[Canada]]. It is south of [[Mount Edziza]] and is overlapped by the [[Ice Peak]] [[central volcano]], which was formed during the early [[Pleistocene]]. Its [[caldera]] is largely destroyed by [[glacier]]s. It is part of the [[Mount Edziza volcanic complex]], which is made of [[basalt]]ic [[lava]] flows.
