Mt. Erebus is the volcano in our backyard. It is active with plumes of smoke visible on a daily basis. This photo was taken on my second hike to Castle Rock and it was a particularly plumy day. I think a pyroclastic flow down it's icy slopes would be quite a sight, but I don't think that ever happens.
Scientists are up there on a regular basis doing their vulcanology science stuff. My friend was able to rappel down into the volcano. I think that would be neat. Maybe they need a private chef up there. Better bring my extreme cold weather gear. And a homemade stove.

Yeah! Pictures are great! Also, maybe this blog site will update more regularly than the last. I hope you are well and staying warm. I was in Tampa (well, Lakeland) early this week for fittings. I thought of you :).
