   The volcanoes in Alaska make up more than three-quarters of U.S. volcanoes that have erupted in the past 200 years. Most of Alaska’s volcanoes are located along the 2,500 km (1,500 mi) Aleutian Arc, which extends westward from the mainland of Alaska towards Kamchatka, and forms the northern portion of the Pacific “ring of fire.”

   • Mount Redoubt Volcano. 1 Map. This 10,197-foot mas­sif about 110 miles south­west of Anchor­age and 50 miles west of Kenai is one of the most active vol­ca­noes in Alas­ka.
   • Mount Augustine Volcano. 2 Map. One of the most rest­less vol­ca­noes in the region, this stun­ning 4,134-foot cone forms its own five-mile-diam­e­ter island in Cook Inlet about 70 miles west of Homer and 170 miles south­west of Anchorage.
   • Mt. Iliamna. 3 Map. Iliamna ris­es less than 50 miles across the water from two state recre­ation beach­es on the south­west cor­ner of the Kenai Penin­su­la.
   • Mount Spurr Volcano. 4 Map. Mount Spurr forms the south­ern but­tress of the Tor­drillo Range, with an active vent on Crater Peak below the sum­mit. This 11,070-foot vol­cano last erupt­ed in Sep­tem­ber of 1992, when it dust­ed the region with an eighth-inch lay­er of vol­canic ash and shut down the reg­u­lar life in Alaska’s largest city for sev­er­al days.
