	Webkenya - Safari in Kenya - Lake Nakuru National Park
		Close to Nakuru, fourth largest town of Kenya, the park is surrounded by fascinating volcanic sceneries : North by the Menengai crater, North-East by the Bahati hills, East by the Lion hill, South by the Eburu crater and West by the Mau escarpment.
		Menengai Crater, one of the largest calderas of the world and the largest of Kenya, is a extinct volcano of the Central Rift Valley (it has been volcanically active until relatively recently as fresh lava flow could be observed in 1991).
		As expected, from the rim of the crater, the view extending a panorama of the northern Rift Valley and a dozen hills (the Mau and Aberdares ranges, the Tugen hills, the Elgeyo-Marakwet escarpment, the Matthews range, and the Cherenganis), is majectic and offers the finest hill scenery in Kenya.

		A few weeks ago, passing Menengai Crater on the way from Nyaharuru to Nakuru, the huge crater, famed for being one of the world's largest calderas, it was shocking to see the unplanned structures and the quarry digging into it.
		He cites the example of Bahati near Menengai Crater where the large scale farms were subdivided to settle small scale farmers, each with their own title deeds.
		The woodlands and the bushlands were lost forever and as the families grew, the original plots grew smaller as the sons inherited the land and subdivided them further.

		Menengai consists of a caldera located on a dormant shield volcano, just north of Nakuru Town in the Rift Valley.
		Roughly 8km wide, the complex shape suggests that there were different periods of collapse for each part.
		It is not know when Menengai last erupted, although some of the cinder cones on the crater floor emit smoke (hence the Maasai legends surrounding it).

	An integrated geophysical study of the northern Kenya rift crustal structure: Implications for geothermal energy ...
		In addition to regional analysis of rift structure, a detailed study of the Menengai volcano area was conducted using over 100 DC resistivity soundings.
		Resistivity anomalies have been highlighted by contouring the apparent resistivity values from the soundings at various depths and investigating how they vary with depth and how they compare with those from the Olkaria geothermal field.
		The resistivity and gravity signatures suggest the presence of a heat source and a geothermal reservoir hosted within the fractured/faulted brittle trachytic lavas of the rift floor to the north and northeast of Menengai caldera.

	PROSPECTS FOR GEOTHERMAL ENERGY IN MENENGAI AREA, KENYA: A REINTERPRETATION OF GEOPHYSICS DATA (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-25)
		The heat source for the prospect is probably associated with a hot magmatic body that underlies the caldera structure at Menengai and a similar but probably older heat source is likely to be associated with the Olrongai/Olbanita geothermal areas.
		Positive magnetic anomaly that is coincident with low resistivity indicates the presence of a magmatic body at shallow depth.
		The geothermal reservoir at Menengai is hosted within the fractured/faulted brittle trachytic lavas of the rift floor and welded pyroclastics that underlie the volcanic pile.
