Little Sitkin is seen here on the NW of the island and the peak to the left is part of the Williwaw Cove Formation, consisting of Tertiary to Quaternary lava flows. Two nested calderas lie between this peak and Little Sitkin. An older Pleistocene caldera lies just beyond the cloud in the center. Photo by Steve Ebbert, 2000 (U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service).
