Sad part was 9 people died from that erruption (if it was the one in NZ). Tourist were not supposed to be in the area... This according to what the news said this morning.
I tell you what, the area that always concerned me is the Owens Valley/Mammoth Mountain in Ca. Lot's of geo-thermal activity up there and the desert below is littered with volcanic craters, lava cones, cinder cones, etc.
