| Augustine volcano lies in southwestern Cook Inlet, southcentral coastal Alaska, 280 kilometers southwest of Anchorage. The nearly circular island is 12 kilometers wide east-west, 10 kilometers north-south; a nearly symmetrical central summit peaks at altitude 1,254 meters. From aerial photographs flows in August 1990, the U.S. Geological Survey's National Mapping Division at Vancouver, Washington, scribed a new topographic map of Augustine Island at 1:25,000 scale with a 10-meter contour interval, on which a new geologic map is plotted. -- Waitt and Begét, 1996 |
