Shiveluch Volcano 20/4/19, Kamchatka

Shiveluch is the northernmost active volcano in Kamchatka Krai, Russia. It and Karymsky are Kamchatka's largest, most active and most continuous erupting volcanoes. Shiveluch began forming about 60,000 to 70,000 years ago. Catastrophic eruptions took place in 1854 and 1956, when a large part of the lava dome collapsed and created a devastating debris avalanche to the south. There are three elements to the volcano: the stratovolcano as a whole; Old Shiveluch with its ancient caldera; the currently active Young Shiveluch vent, with an elevation of about 2,800 metres (9,186 ft). Shiveluch is one of Kamchatka's largest and most active volcanic structures. It is a stratovolcano composed of alternating layers of solidified ash, hardened lava and volcanic rocks.
