Volcanic Exfoliation

All Photos (8)

Volcanoes smoke, secrete lava, and most notoriously, explode. Despite such widespread, prejudiced generalizations that hurt the reputation of an under-recognized minority of volcanoes, we as a society are moving forward and embracing these gentler relatives. One such example is Volcan Totumo, where patrons can take a mud bath in a 2.3 km pit of liquid mud, enjoying the unique experience as well as the alleged restorative properties of the mud. I just thought it was cool to take a mud bath in an active volcano. How many people get to do that?
