10 days after the awakening of the volcano, the main vent build a cone now totally closed on its northern part.
The small lake inside the cone keeps on degassing with many projections spattering the cone.
Meanwhile under the southern flank an underground lava tunnel exits further to feed a lava channel with many interesting forms:
Tunnels, skylights, tubes, rivers, pools.
