14/07 Strombolian activity in Bocca Nuova
Since few days Bocca Nuova shows strombolian activity. Even yesterday evening it was possible to see red shining above the top.
Etna Walk went up to discover if it was possible to see anything and… watch another Etna Walk adventure!
We watched the video clip etna walk published on Hotel Corsaro’s website.
What do that people think?!
Everybody who has brains knows about the danger which origins from the deep fractures at the crater rim of Bocca Nuova. Parts are already collapsed resp. show a clear depression. At any time further parts of the crater rim could suddenly collapse.
The behaviour of the etna walk people is simply silly! Do they love to dice with death? If so they should do, but please without public. To our mind it is irresponsible to use it for promotion for etna walk and to give the impression of an easy walk.
That’s a dangerous misguidance for other Etna visitors!
Mt. Etna is much more than an object for marketing. More respect to nature, please!
