March 23, 2009--Plumes of steam rise from a vent in the summit crater of Redoubt Volcano--a glacier-covered peak 110 miles (177 kilometers) southwest of Anchorage, Alaska--on March 21, a day before the volcano began a series of powerful eruptions.

Sparked by avalanches of hot debris rushing down the Redoubt Volcano's northern flank, a mushroom cloud rises from the Alaska peak on April 21, 1990. A smaller, white plume of steam pours from the volcano's summit crater.
