Mount Kukak, Stratovolcano in Alaska Peninsula, United States

Mount Kukak rises 2,043 meters above sea level, featuring an ice-covered surface and continuous fumarolic activity within the Aleutian volcanic arc system.

The volcano, integrated into Katmai National Park in 1980, stands as a geological marker of the complex tectonic activities along the Aleutian Range.

Indigenous populations maintained settlements near Mount Kukak for generations before Russian fur traders arrived in the region during the 19th century.

Access to Mount Kukak requires careful planning through Katmai National Park, with boat transportation on Naknek Lake serving as the primary route.

The mountain maintains active fumaroles despite no documented eruptions, indicating ongoing geological processes beneath its ice-covered surface.
