Rakkibetsudake volcano, forming the peninsula to the right, is seen from the summit of Srednii volcano of the Moyorodake volcanic complex on Iturup island. It grew during the Holocene within a glacial valley 3 km E of the eroded Pleistocene Kamui volcano, the higher peak on the left horizon. The summit contains a 1.5-km-wide crater that opens to the east.
