North and South Killeak Maar Lakes. A maar is a broad, short volcanic crater formed by groundwater or permafrost coming into contact with hot lava or magma, which causes an explosion. The maars of Bering Land Bridge National Preserve are quite unique. They are at the northernmost point in the world where maar lakes can be found. They were the first reported example of maars created by permafrost contacting magma. And Devil Mountain Maar, North and South Killeak Maar, and Whitefish Maar are the four largest maar lakes in the world.
