The Kookooligit Mountains are a volcanic mountain range on north-central St. Lawrence Island in the U.S. state of Alaska. They consist of a 30 km (19 mi) long and 40 km (25 mi) wide shield volcano capped with over 100 smaller volcanic cones.[1][2] The volcanic cones are composed primarily of alkali olivine basalts, olivine tholeiite, and basanite.[2]
