Library of Congress catalog-card No. 92-32287For sale by U.S. Geological Survey, Map Distribution Box 25286, MS 306, Federal Center Denver, CO 80225COVER PHOTO: Kaguyak Crater is the northernmost collapse caldera in the Aleutian volcanic arc and the only Holocene caldera on the Alaska Peninsula whose age has not been determined directly.
