Mojanda volcano has a 3-km-wide caldera that contains the Laguna Grande de Mojanda, shown in this August 2019 Planet Labs satellite image monthly mosaic (N is at the top; this image is approximately 24 km across). The complex contains the older Fuya Fuya to the W, and Mojanda to the E. Fuya Fuya underwent a large flank collapse that produced the horseshoe-shaped scarp on the SW side, opening towards the W. The Cerro el Panecillo dome is on the NW flank.
