Oh dear.
That looks like a good-sized volcano.

Do you say uh-GUS-tin or AW-gus-teen? (Ach du lieber!) Good luck!

I remember the eruption back in 76! really hard on car paint. If you didn't spray off the volcanic dust anywhere anything that sat on a flat surface (hood) looked like a water ring was there permanently.

Kind of ironic that I lived about a mile from Fire Lake (out in Ealge River) at the time.
