What you are looking at
The ILCB camera sits at about 710 m (2,340 feet) on the west side of Cook Inlet, about 24 km (15 miles) south of Iliamna Volcano, and looks north. On clear days the frame shows Iliamna's broad, glaciated summit and its long snowy ridges rising above steep, rocky slopes, with water in the foreground that reflects the light.
Iliamna is a large stratovolcano covered in glaciers, about 3,050 m (10,000 feet) high. It has no confirmed historical eruptions, but steam often rises from fumaroles near its summit, and it is known for large ice and rock avalanches. Periods of earthquake unrest in the 1990s and again in 2011 and 2012 were linked to magma moving at depth. Check the Alaska Volcano Observatory Iliamna page for the current alert level.
The image here refreshes about every ten minutes. Winter light is low and golden, summer gives long days with more bare rock showing, and clouds often wrap the summit. Watch for steam plumes on cold, calm days. Tip: compare with the IVE camera, which looks at the summit from very close range on the east flank.
