History

translation of the Russian name "Sopka Redutskaya" (Tebenkov, 1852, map 5). name "Ujakushatsch" also means "fortified place" but it is difficult to determine if one name is derived from the other. This may be the volcano called "Volcan de Miranda" by the Spanish in 1779, but more likely it was Iliamna Volcano. Captain Tebenkov reports that the volcano erupted in 1778. also includes the mountain in his list of Alaska Volcanos and states that "in 1819 the Redoubt volcano of Cook's Inlet smoked" (in Dall, 1870, p. 499).
