Awe inspiring! A once-in-a-lifetime experience. Photos cannot capture the scene adequately. The road takes you almost to the rim of the crater, so it is only a ten minute walk up the volcanic ash and rock to see down into the crater. We arrived around 5 pm, and it was quite overcast and had been raining. The volcano had been at Level 1 last week when we left home, but was now at Level 2. Anything higher than 2 means the mountain is closed to tourists, so we were lucky.

During daylight hours the mountain is typically not as active, but as the temperature drops, the activity increases.

Photography was very tricky.
