Mount Pinatubo

Mount Pinatubo ahead of us. The eruption happened on 26. June 1991.

40 Million cubic meter of material exploded within minutes. A disaster, that changed the landscape of the region for ever.

Helper re-filling cooling water. Our vehicles do not need a lot of maintenance.

Native people on their way home.

Nacolcol on the approach. A picturesce village, where we will spend most of our time.

Arrival at Nacolcol. This is the place to refresh ourselves from the trip.

A closer look at the village, which includes the municipal building and a school.

A typical house in Nacolcol.

The people of Nacolcol are self sufficient and produce their own vegetables, such as rice, Maniok, Bananas and coconut.

They are also still hunters and gatherers.

The foreground shows a maniok field. The background a fish lake and a rice field.

Boy harvesting young coconuts for the guests. A delicacy worthwile climing up a palmtree for.

This is what the lahar of the Pinutubo eruption left behind. Ash, and tons of it. This is slowly washed away by water. The result is ice-berg style landscapes.

On the way back we cross the lahar-fields. This is all off-road country, no streets, no traffic lights, pure nature.
