Geology Picture of the Week, March 14-20, 2010: Two of my favorite things
ALPE ^ | Martin Rietze

Still trying to get back on a normal schedule; so laziness-wise, here are pictures of my favorite things, from the same page:

A lava lake (Chile's Villarica)

Villarica is a good-looking peak

A waterfall (Chile's Rio Truful)

And to finish it off, here's a volcano (the famously symmetrical Osorno) and a waterfall (Saltos del Petrohue) in the same picture:

I recognize and commend all those who have worked in rescue-and-recovery missions or donated to support of the victims of the earthquakes in Haiti and Chile.


TOPICS: Arts/Photography; Education; Science; Travel
KEYWORDS: chile; lava; volcano; waterfall
Chile has been hit with some bad disasters (Chaiten, the earthquakes), but it sure has scenery.

And Chile just kicked their socialists out of power. I wish we could do the same.
