Camp on the edge of the peak with volcanic views
The most amazing camp site a top the volcano, above the clouds, surrounded my other volcanoes and freezing cold
Much needed camp fires to enjoy the view
The neighboring active volcano put on a small show of lava, because the night before it was exploding for hours. We could see the lava burst high from the peak from Antigua town below.
Sunset colours above the clouds
A further hike to the very top of the volcano at 4am to see this amazing sunrise. However, not sure if it was worth the steep climb with altitude struggle and freezing winds. The same view could've been seen from the warmth of the camp fire. We made it though and my fingers surprisingly didn't fall off.
