Description: From Miller and others (1998):"Few details are available concerning historical activity of Tanaga Volcano, and some or all of the events attributed to it may have involved adjacent cones in the northwest part of the island (Coats, 1950)."
Grewingk (1850, translated 2003 by Fritz Jaensch) reports: "1763-1770 constantly active (according to promyshlenniks)."
From Sapper (1917): "Tanaga smoking in 1763-1770."
