Volcano Hike (I did it again!) - 31 May

A survival trip indeed! We hiked tough trails and camped overnight (no tents), with little supplies (objective to fend from the nature - which luckily has a lot to offer over here). I went with a group hiking the volcano from the winward side of the island and camping overnight at the top of the volcano - a longer but less tough route than from our side (leeward). It was doable, but the night was rougher than expected - we got drenched head to toe!! It rained all night and we only had our sleeping bags and no shelter (there's really nothing much at the top of the volcano, only a few bushes). I think I've never been so wet in my life, but I survived!
Compare the pic of the dome in the crater with earlier post - is it expanding...??
