Description
This beautiful view of Kaguyak Crater located at the summit of Mt. Kaguyak, a stratovolcano, in Alaska was taken on a flight of K-Bay Air on one of the Alaska Bear Viewing adventures. It was a spectacular view and actually took my breath away as I took this image.
Mount Kaguyak is a stratovolcano located in the northeastern part of the Katmai National Park in Alaska. The 2.5 km wide caldera is filled by a more than 180 m deep crater lake. The surface of the crater lake lies about 550 m below the rim of the caldera. Postcaldera lava domes form a prominent peninsula in the center of the lake. The volcano is 901 m high and hosts a spectacular view because it rises from lowland areas near sea level in the south of the Big River.
