Geological summary

Mount Steller is part of a chain of closely spaced volcanic peaks oriented NE-SW in Katmai National Park and lies between Mount Denision and Kukak volcanoes. Uncertainty surrounds the number and location of vents in this heavily glaciated area. The precise age of the most recent activity at Steller is not known, but the volcano was considered to have been active during the Holocene by Nye et al. (1998).
