Data from the Global Volcanism Program of the Smithsonian Institution
Details for: Denison
Mount Denison lies in a poorly known section of Katmai National Park that contains one or more mostly ice-covered vents. The slopes of Mount Denison are seen on the right half of the photo, between the pointed summit in the center and the flatter peak to the far right, between which a glacier descends towards the middle of the image. The rounded peak on the horizon beyond the slopes of Denison is Mount Steller, and the summit ridge of Snowy volcano forms the far-left skyline in this long-distance NE-looking view.

Mount Denison lies near the head of the Serpent Tongue, Hook, and Hallo glaciers NE of Snowy volcano. This poorly known section of Katmai National Park contains a line of four closely spaced and mostly ice-covered volcanic peaks. Denison lies at the SW end of this chain, which also includes Steller, Kukak, and Devils Desk volcanoes. Orientation of lava flows and a thick cross-bedded tephra deposit suggest that a vent is located near Mount Denison (Swanson, in Wood and Kienle 1990). The precise age of the most recent activity at Denison is not known.
