Volcano Acatenango


This is Fuego on left and Acatenango on the right with two peak. The top is 3974 m above sea level



This is the first environment that we walked through, farmland.

Our guide Matt and his dog, Moss. This is the second environment we climbed through - Cloud Forrest.






Next environment was coniferous forest. Peering through them here.




Out of the coniferous forest to the last barren zone.





Nearly there...


Come on Dave, did you bring the ring???

Matt and Moss at the top


Made it :)


Dave reading the Merredin Mercury at the top.


This was the most we could see the active Fuego because of the clouds, but we could hear it very well.


After lunch we all had a little lie down.


Shitty out of focus shot but thats what I have.


At 3974 m. Thanks for the jacket again Mum, very handy



Forrest on the way down



Pretty chuffed to get up and down, might have found a new hobby.
