Report on the Etna Eruption and Torre del Filosofo hut

If you can read Italian, this would be a lot more interesting. The reason for posting it is the pictures, which are impressive. Up until this eruption, the Torre del Filosofo mountain hut was a place that hikers to the Etna summit could use for rest and occasionally for shelter from summit eruption activity. Not any more; the new activity has buried it.

RE the lost hut...they'll just have to be 'filosofo' about it. ;^)
