Karymsky is one of the most active volcanoes on the
Kamchatka peninsula. The volcano is located in the caldera of the extinct
volcano Dvor. Located near by are the volcanoes Bolshoi Semiachik and Maly
Semiachik.
It's latest large period activity is evident because
of several lava streams throught Dvors caldera. The current activity at
the volcano is a mix between Strombolian and Vulcanian eruptions.
An ash plume reached 9,800 ft up in the atmosphere after a Vulcanian eruption. The ash cloud spread toward the east, but no speeds of the cloud have been reported. An increase of volcanic activity has been noticed in the area lately.
