The NW cone contains vigorous fumaroles. It has produced a lava flow that flowed 7 km to the SE. The southern cone forms the highest point of the Karpinsky massif. It fed lava flows to the SE and west. The NW cone displays hot springs and sulfur cones containing liquid sulfur that is occasionally ejected outward. A minor ash eruption in 1952 was the only historical eruption of the Karpinsky group. (Source: Smithsonian / GVP volcano information) 1952 eruption following 9.0 earthquake
