Alaska Volcano Webcams
Alaska Volcano Observatory
September 7, 2007 | Alaska Volcano Observatory

The Alaska Volcano Observatory monitors volcanoes in Alaska, the Kamchatka Peninsula of Russia and the Kurile Islands. They provide weekly updates and status reports of volcanic activity in their area, maintain a library of information and images and have webcams aimed at a number of volcanoes. If you visit the webcams during daylight hours you can see a volcanic peak and sometimes activity.
