howdy.
Went on a rather interesting trip (actually 2, went two days in a row) over the first days of easter, thought I´d spam a few pics in here, if I may
The thing is that on 22 march I think, a local volcano started to erupt, it´s located between 2 glaciers so there was a big risk of major flooding at first but the eruption settled down a bit and has been quite "tourist friendly" over the easter. So naturally I took my 60 and took a look
We went on my 60 and a friends Isuzu Trooper, both on 38" wheels.
the first "challenge" was this hill. The total elevation was about a mile from sealevel.
seeing the volcano coming down from the first glacier.
this is as far as we went to see the first fissure (they are two).
this is the second fissure, a bit more dramatic, it actually opened the day before we arrived, some 50 feet from a group of hikers, needles to say some of them must have broken some kind of land-speed record
the trooper, very nice truck.
posing with the volcano
we went a bit late so we could see the lava in the dark, very beautiful.
....it was very cold and windy but one could always get warm near the rocks
and the lava flowed down a nearby valley, making this great lava-fall.
and one for the road.
Hope you enjoyed the pics
and please let me know if they aren´t visible on the thread...
