Zoomed in view of the intracaldera cinder and spatter cone at Veniaminof.  The active lava flow delta descends the cone flank at lower right where it is melting glacial ice and causing crevassing and collapse into a broad depression.  Volcanic gas, water vapor, and possibly tiny amounts of ash waft above the active vents.
