| 1760-00-00 | | Kasatochi: 1760 | Grewingk (1850, translated 2003 by Fritz Jaensch) writes that in 1760, Koniuji island was rising.
Coats (1950) attributes historical eruptions of Koniuji to Kasatochi instead, because Koniuji is "deeply eroded" and "does not appear to have been active in Recent time." Lending credence to this thought is Bergsland's (1959, p. 35) publication which records the Aleut place name of Kasatochi as "qana-tanar" = which island, as in "which island is it that is emerging out there." | asterisk_yellow.png | ye | 50 | http://www.avo.alaska.edu/volcanoes/activity.php?volcname=Kasatochi&eruptionid=61&page=basic | |

| 2005-07-27 | 2005-9-00 | Kasatochi: 2005 | From McGimsey and others (2007): "In late July 2005, AVO was contacted by Vern Byrd of U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS)/Homer who passed along a report from a USFWS field camp on Kasatochi Island, located about 50 km (~30 mi) east of Great Sitkin and about 100 km (~60 mi) west of Korovin Volcano. On June 23, members of the field party viewed the lake and noticed nothing unusual. Then, on July 27, the same field party peered into the summit crater from the rim and saw the lake 'simmering, ...

| 2006-6-2 | | Kasatochi: 2006 | From Neal and others (2009): "Bubbling from the Kasatochi crater lake was first reported in the summer of 2005 (McGimsey and others, 2007) and continued into 2006. U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) scientist Brie Drummond, who has spent several summers on the island and was the principal observer of the 2005 activity, visited the south caldera rim on the morning of June 2, 2006. The day was overcast but calm and the lake surface was ‘like glass.’ Drummond noted a disturbance on the water surface ...

Kasatochi has received little study by volcanologists and has had no confirmed historical eruptions; it is not monitored with seismic instruments on Kasatochi Island. The island is part of the Alaska Maritime ... More information | exclamation.png | ye | 50 | http://www.avo.alaska.edu/volcanoes/activity.php?volcname=Kasatochi&eruptionid=605&page=basic | |
