		We were about an hour into the hike when we discovered, with the aid of binoculars, that one of the clouds we saw near the top of the volcano was actually a fumerol, or steam vent.
		Vera, the volcanologist, told us that Avachinsky last erupted in 1991 and the magma continues to "simmer" beneath a plugged chamber near the crest.
		It is certain to erupt again, but we were assured that all of Kamchatka's volcanoes are carefully monitored and we were in no immediate danger.
