The 14 x 12 km Shikotsu caldera is shown in this September 2019 Planet Labs satellite image monthly mosaic (N is at the top; this image is approximately 28 km across). Tarumae is the cone on the SE rim of the caldera with a roughly 1.5-km-wide crater containing a lava dome. Between Tarumae and the caldera lake is the eroded Fuppushi cone. On the opposite (NW) side of the caldera is the Eniwa cone.
