Volcanic Activity of Damavand 19 June 2007

The volcanic activity of Volcano Damavand is unusual and much higher than usual this year (2007), the photos shows the most active part very closed to the top in the south route. When reaching that area keep away from these smokes and continue your way up against the wind . In case of feeling too much gas a handkerchief spread with vinegar is enough to pass the area. You do not necessarily need oxygen mask , it is optional.

To pass the volcanic area of damavand you can make a vinegar mask !!


Damavand Volcanic Activity


I noticed a new change in 19 June 2007 for the first time. A small amount of red material is coming out of main and most active part of volcanic area plus a great amount of sulphur gas and steam. I am not sure what kind of material is this red one ?! but I can say it is not lava or fire !! perhaps it is hot sulphur . I think these changes worth some kind of research. It is not so safe to get closer to get a better picture by ordinary cameras , but still you can see these red substance in photos.
