Mt Cameroon pics-4

Washed out layers of ash - The 2000 eruption was the big one. This picture is downwind of the crater that put 4-5 feet of ash and dirt across the valley floor. Rainwater has since washed out this dry bed so that you can see the layers of material deposited.









Magic Tree - This tree grows right out of the rock and somehow survived the last lava flow here.










Down the backside - Endless fields of volcanic rock. We did 14 km (10 miles) day 2 at high altitude and it was tough.
