On 5th of April Anibal and me climbed the Santa Maria volcano. We supposed to watch the activity of Santiaguito Dome from there. Six hours of rain during the night prevented us from seeing any nightime volcanic activity. However a spectacular mourning and a powerful eruption of Santiaguito made the trip worthy. The stong, jet like sounds of the volcano were really impressive!
Note that the second eruption would have been a serious thread to climbers of the dome. I would not recomand to do that, because one could clearly see the formation of small pyroclastic flows during that stonger eruption episode.
