Mount Recheshnoi

Mount Recheschnoi from the Russian - Bay Valley

The Mount Recheschnoi is a strongly eroded and glaciated stratovolcano ten kilometers east of Mount Vsevidof at the southwest end of Umnak in the eastern Aleutian Islands in the U.S. state of Alaska.

On the northeast flank of the Recheshnoi is one of the hottest and most extensive thermal areas of Alaska. The thermal field of Geyser Bight, eight kilometers north-east of the summit, consists of six zones of hot springs and fumaroles two along the upper Geyser Creek and contains the only known geysers in Alaska. Other thermal areas can be found at Hot Springs Cove and Partov Cove on the isthmus between Mount Recheshnoi and Mount Okmok.
