Valley of Geysers

The author systematized names of main objects such as geysers, springs, mudpots, pools etc. located in the Valley of Geysers, Kronotsky Reserve, Kamchatka. The article describes the sources of data which were used to analyze the history of the objects' names, overviews the working methods, and presents the main results. These are a list and coordinates of objects which proper names are known in the literature, maps which show the location of objects, and a list of geysers and springs destroyed by the 2007 landslide. The work resulted in publication of an electronic catalogue of the Valley of Geysers with descriptions and photos of 127 objects, including 56 geysers. Keywords: the Valley of Geysers, catalogue, guide
