Frosty Peak Volcano

Frosty Peak Volcano

Frosty Volcano itself is located on the northern flank of an even older volcano, the Morzhovoi Volcano. Morzhovoi Volcano was probably formed in the early to middle Pleistocene, and collapsed into a caldera. The highest points that remain from the caldera are called North and South Walrus Peak.
