Avachinsky volcano overlooking the town of Petropavlovsk on
the Kamchatka Peninsula.
The volcano last erupted in 1991.
Most eruptions have been up to a VEI of 3 or less.
The stamp was issued in 1966.
I think the stamp above shows both Avachinsky (right) and
Koriasky.
From the same stamp set.
This stamp would appear to be closer view of Avachinsky.
Issued in 1997.
