| | MOUNT VENIAMINOF (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-14) |
 | | Its caldera is filled by an ice field and where this reaches over the caldera rim glaciers are found on the volcano's sides (Miller et al, 1998). |
 | | Through its history Veniaminof has been relatively active with eruptions occurring in 1838, 1852, 1874, 1892, 1930, 1939, 1944, 1956, 1983, 1984 and 1993 to 1995 (Wallace et al, 2000). |
 | | The eruption of 1993-1995 consisted of a low level strombolian type that consisted of ash and steam (seen in picture 1), also during this eruption a small lava flow melted part of the ice field to form an oval shaped hole which can be seen in picture 2. |
