Volcanologists from the U.S. Geological Survey on the rim of the intra-caldera Vent Mountain at Aniakchak look NW towards Half Cone, a prominent feature on the caldera floor and the source of an explosive post-caldera eruption. The NW caldera rim of Aniakchak caldera forms the skyline. Photo by Christina Neal, 1992 (Alaska Volcano Observatory, U.S. Geological Survey).
