nice place

Nice little campground in the middle of nowhere! Looks like a place I wouldn't mind spending a few nights at.

Re: nice place

Make sure you check with the Institute for Volcanology and Seismology in P-K for the current and projected state of activity. This spot has been an avalanche chute in the past.
