History
Originally named by 1935 U.S. Navy Survey Expedition "because the three connected summits comprising the volcano are analogous to the three-headed dog of Greek mythology, the guardian of the entrance to the underworld." The name was changed to Mount Young by Public Law No. 117-358, named for Don Young, who represented Alaska in the U.S. House of Representatives for 49 years.
