Katmai 1951/8
Start: August 1951 [1]
Event Type: Not an eruption
Description: From Jones (1952): "On August 9 [1951], A.E. Jones saw the volcanoes from Pavlof to Douglas, and, although an ash fall near Katmai had been reported a few days before, he could see no signs of activity." Hildreth (1983) states: "Published compilations notwithstanding, there are no credible reports of historic eruptions in the Katmai group except at Novarupta in 1912 and at Trident in 1953 - 1968."
