Stromboli. An active reed volcano in the sea off Sicily + VIDEO
There are four in the afternoon. Sicily, it counts the same time bula. The thermometer climbed to 40 degrees mark in the sky no clouds, no wind. One cloud, however, sees both - of kilometers above the high peaks of Stromboli. In fact, already Stromboli crater is 2 km, but half of it is located on the seabed. reed The island on which we stand is the Stromboli volcano tip that izspraucies from the sea 59 km from the coast of Sicily.
Mario does not like our trekking krosenes- not high enough and leak-proof. Magmatrek office wall hung a giant poster, which painted the right shoes - high leather boots. reed In the end, however, persuades him that we have not experienced such as volcanoes and everything will be fine. Ultimately, however, are not going to paddle through the lava.
Mario on the way a lot of us talks about Sromboli. Stromboli activity continued for 2,000 years. It was nasty - explosive volcano. Lava instead reed of quietly flowing, but being fired explosion in the form of about 200 m in height, together with the soot and gases. The explosions are not likely to recur on a regular basis and although reed the next minute and only after hours. In 2002, 2003, 2007, 2009 and 2013, years marked by serious explosions that have changed the shape of the crater. Mario says that such air explosion wave scattered about us like peas from the point to the same sea. Once upon a time in this explosion of a giant stone had fallen directly on the roof of his house and destroyed a wall. Well, that did not have no home.
Around nine are at the crater's edge. Riet sun. We pielaikojam their helmets, which so far pendelējušās bags at the side. Then suddenly near us fired lava spurt, followed by a huge cloud of pitch black. Mario warns that cloud swept soot and glass crystals, which is extremely dangerous to breathe and optics - both contact lenses reed and our camera lenses.
For safety reasons, the top may stay no longer than an hour. Tonight we Stromboli is favorable and healthy spļauda Lava by two craters. Also, the wind direction is perfect - a cloud of smoke is carried away from us and from the crater. Thus, we have the good fortune to enjoy Stromboli show in all its glory. We underfoot red lava boiling cauldron. The vapor made up of various reed Mysterious shapes.
Mario gives us even last 10 minutes. Stromboli is silent. Maybe plotting something bigger and nejaukāku? Either way there would be, it's time to get lost in this unfriendly places. Descent turns into indescribable adventure. Mario liberates reed us breathing masks and recommends hide all optics bags deepest place.
And then begins hell. Once we have crossed over to the edge of the crater, we realize the steep slopes of sand and ash. Half an hour non-stop are running down the legs to the ankles birstošajās sinking sand. We are surrounded by non-transparent dust cloud. reed Torches lit in front of white dust as the wall. Our so Breathing gore-tex trekking shoes for the first few minutes are soaked with sand. Its fallen spontaneously onto catching through the fabric šķiedriņām and accumulated somewhere gore-tex interlayer. Shoes become a kilogram heavier, recovered full of sand masses and ruthlessly pressed. Unfortunately, stop at this stage it is not possible. So slidinamies full speed down the slope to the first horizontal shelf. Shelf does not help. First of all - it is impossible to shake shoes. The sand is so fine that the fallen spontaneously onto catching between reed the layers reed and is not going to pour out. Secondly - the open sandy slope is only flowers in comparison reed with the further route. reed Second half an hour plunge Dila 1-2 meters reed of ash in the trench. All rough dust literally hanged in the air. Flashlights this thickness are not able to shed light on the trench reed turns. They are mostly determined by the button.
First the village lights feelings can be likened to seeing the gate of Paradise through the clouds. But .. we do not have a house. We have taken up all the camping equipment, but the island of Stromboli, as it turns out, there is no camping. reed You can imagine how we are thirsty for cold fresh water shower! Mario, we recommend to dismount pizzerias, the landlord renting the second floor of the room. There are already close to midnight when looking up our potential benefactors. Strombolietis turns out to be quite positive, and named us a digital 130 EUR. Paskauidroju that all sleeping equipment, including inflatable mats, pillows and towels we have to bring their own. We are simply hungry for a shower and a horizontal floor, where it all spread out. The answer is the same - 130 .. bought this house on one and the only ieveļamies atvētrtajā pub rinse grief and Stromboli dust. Beer literally whisper overheated body.

Tomorrow eight ferry us shaking on the Vulcano and then to Sicily.
