Nyiragongo
I have climbed one of the eight and have great envy and admiration for the creator of this page who visited the top of all of them. Nyiragongo is certainly a non-technical climb but over-nighting atop can be pretty darn chilly at that elevation. The sight of the lava lake at night in the crater will mesmerize you. This is a magical part of the world. Remote. Jungled. And the home of the magnificent Mountain Gorillas. God bless the Rangers Of Virunga National Park in the DRC for making this climb possible.
