Image: Cerro Negro eruption 1968
Description: Ash falls at the left from a strombolian eruption column emanating from the summit crater of Cerro Negro volcano in 1968. At the same time incandescent spatter (lower right) is ejected from a small vent on the south flank of the cone. The 1968 eruption began on October 23 and lasted until December 15. The south-flank vent also fed a lava flow that traveled 1.5 km.
