Thank you for this interesting and detailed post! We don't have volcanoes in my country, so learned a lot. I have heard that these eruptions have destroyed entire civilizations in the past. Now wit technology, it's good to have prior alert systems. It's good to hear that risk is not high in your area.

The fact is that the volcano is so close, that I have had the opportunity to climb to its summit,

Wow That must be a great experience for you!

God luck with the contest!
