This was our route.   Our Goal ?    That jagged point on top.   It belched smoke & gas constantly.
 
   
We rode horses for 3/4 of the distance .... up very steep rocky paths..... stopping to rest briefly at various checkpoints.
 
 
   
When we reached this point, we had to dismount & go the rest of the way on foot.    That lava field was really daunting !!!
 
   
   
This was a very very difficult climb     ( and the horseback ride wasn't real comfortable either ).
Let me tell you ......More than one of us headed for a long hot soak when this was over.
