Mount Kukak

Nature
Mount Kukak is a stratovolcano on Alaska Peninsula in the United States, notable for being almost completely covered by ice while still remaining volcanically active. Its heavy glaciation gives it a stark appearance, and although the date of its last eruption is unknown, vigorous fumarolic activity shows that hot gases continue to escape from the mountain. This combination of persistent geothermal activity and extensive ice cover makes Mount Kukak a significant volcanic feature of the peninsula.
