Avalanche
Ashes, lava, and gases
made up the materials of
an avalanche on the
slopes of Arenal
Volcano, which in the
coming weeks reaches 40
years of continuous
activity.
According to
volcanologists, the
materials rolled 800
metres (2,625 feet) down
the southwestern side of
the mountain.
Even though nobody was
affected, the
authorities evacuated 20
tourists and closed down
Arenal Volcano National
Park for a few hours. |
