The Asacha volcano group is seen here looking WSW from the slopes of Mutnovsky. Most of the complex was constructed during the Pleistocene, but some of a group of ten lava domes across the flanks of the complex may be early Holocene in age. During the Holocene, scoria cones and lava flows also erupted along the western and southern flanks of the Asacha complex.
