Jim Baichtal has a habit of cruising the website of the National
Oceanographic and Atmospheric Administration looking for new
hydrographic surveys of Alaska.
“I
was just checking the website before I headed out one day," he said,
"and when I saw the survey results of an area near Ketchikan, all I can
remember saying is, ‘Oh, my gosh!’" Buried inside the NOAA data were 3D
renderings of a previously unknown volcano, beneath the depths of Behm
Canal inside Misty Fjords National Monument.
