>In Pucon, I did an excursion with an outfitter to climb Villarica volcano. I have no idea if they're still allowing it, since the volcano is not dormant. We climbed up thru the snow to the rim of the volcano. It was amazing to look into the caldera and see the mini-eruptions of red-hot lava. The fumes there can be deadly, so you cannot stay around the caldera for very long. In restrospect, it was probably pretty dangerous. A couple of the mini-eruptions came halfway up to where I was standing looking down into the volcano.

Yep, it's high on my list of things to do
