Geological Photos
In late January 1983 we made a helicopter trip into the newly formed El Chichon crater. Here are a selection of those photos. For more see an article from the National Geographic Magazine which featured some photos by Brian Wolfe. The landscapes were unique. Each of the photos below is geotagged to compare with modern views.
