Alpha-1 and -2 at the western foot of Alpha-1 are in the Bolotnaya river valley, 1.5. km west of Aluchin river. Alpha-1 is a 70 m high and over 800 m wide cone, and has a crater which is 580 m wide and 25 m deep. Beta is in the Aluchin river valley 5 km SE of the Alpha-1 and -2 group. It is a 50 m high and 740 m wide cone and has a 200-270 m crater. Gamma is 1.3 km SW of Beta and is a 40 m high and 440 m wide cone with a 90 m wide crater. A 2-8 km wide basaltic lava flow north of Beta and Gamma extends over 85 km length.
