	January 9 - Mangatepopo Hut to Ketetahi Hut, Climb Ngauruhoe
		The sun was just starting to rise over the slopes of Ngauruhoe to the east, and I hurried outside to take some pictures.
		A side trail went up Mt. Ngauruhoe, and a sign said it was a two hour climb.
		This was not nearly as high as Ngauruhoe, and there didn't seem to be much point of going out there in the rain.

	Tongariro Crossing, New Zealand
		(Ngauruhoe has the distinction of doubling as Orodruin or "Mount Doom" in the Lord of the Rings films.) Volcanoes as tall as this were the result of multiple eruptions over many thousands of years.
		Ngauruhoe's first eruption is thought to have occurred 2,500 years ago, making it the youngest of the volcanic vents in the park.
		Ngauruhoe, now ringed by clouds, stood majestically behind the crater, while the even larger Mt. Ruapehu dominated the sky behind it.

	Ngauruhoe Crater (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-31)
		Ngauruhoe Crater is at the top of Mt. Ngauruhoe, a steep climb above the Tongariro Crossing portion of the Tongariro Circuit, which makes a big loop around this conical volcano.
		The crater still emits volcanic gasses, so climbing into it is not recommended, although some people do.
		The gas vents are quite warm to the touch.

		Each year, only a few earthquakes of any type are recorded in the vicinity of Mt. Ngauruhoe, but since the beginning of May the number of low frequency earthquakes recorded has increased from less than five per day, to more than twenty per day in the past week.
		In 1983, 1991 and 1994 there were clusters of similar earthquakes recorded near Ngauruhoe, but there have been very few recorded since then.
		The transition in the crust between cool brittle rock and hot ductile rock is thought to occur around this depth.

	Tongariro Traverse including an ascent of Mt.Ngauruhoe
		Leaving the road the trail follows alongside a meandering stream through alpine scrub and across old lava flows to a wide, flat amphitheatre at the head of the valley.
		Outcrops of solid rock protrude from the scree and the recommended technique is to utilize these as much as possible on the long, steep climb to the crater rim.
		Moving further round onto the completely-circular rim of the newer, smaller, inner crater I peered down into the awesome depths where plumes of nauseous, sulphurous fumes hissed ominously from numerous fumeroles.
