Life returns (1988-2001)

Lahar viewpoint: Destruction in 1980 was not by the explosive blast (which went the other way towards the North), but by a lahar, mainly caused by the melting of Shoestring glacier, remnants of which are below the prominent notch in the crater rim. The sign has been removed - not stones on the ground: We are indeed in the exact same spot as in 1988!
