Kambalny volcano from the south. In fact Kambalny consists of two cones: a western (left) one formed in Early Holocene, and about 6000 ¹⁴C yrs BP was destroyed by voluminous sector collapses, which formed at least three debris avalanche units. Near the summit we see the rim of a debris avalanche crater, marked by snow lines, and a new cone (on the right), which have filled the crater. Hummocks at the right are a lava flow,  those at the left - debris avalanche deposits.
