Korovin is seen here from the S, with the smaller Konia cone on its SE flank. Korovin is one of the most frequently active centers of the large complex at the NE tip of Atka Island, and contains two craters near the summit. The SE cone has a 1-km-wide crater, larger than the NW summit. Photo by Jim Myers, 1997 (University of Wyoming; courtesy of Alaska Volcano Observatory).
