Virtual Volcano Vacation challenge #4 WINNER! – Santa Ana

Choosing a volcano sometimes comes easier than other times. I do not want to get into the practice of picking ones that are getting more media attention..or ones that are very famous..or even ones that are personal favourites of mine. Sometimes I just have to fly around the virtual-Earth a few times until I find…

Welcome

"Eldfjallanördást" may or may not even be a proper Icelandic word. "Eldfjall" translates to "Fire Mountain, and "nördást" is literally "nerd-love" and if eldfjallafræði is volcanology, then this blog is volcanogeekery.

I am not a volcanologist..or geologist... or even a college graduate. I am just a person who has always been interested in volcanoes. But since finding a group of like-minded enthusiasts following the Bardarbunga eruption online, my flicker of interest has kind of exploded into a full-blown pursuit. Being that I am a self-identifying nerd, I feel it is my duty to inspire others to become as passionate about volcanoes as I am...or else annoy them into submission. :)

I invented the Virtual Volcano Vacation challenge after downloading Google Earth. I was zooming around the globe and decided to drop in on Mount Vesuvius..but was a little surprised to find myself virtually inside the crater. I had not reckoned on Google Earth's maps being quite so detailed. After posting a screen-grab to my Facebook wall and seeing who could guess where I was, I decided to make it a weekly event...and the best part of all is that each week I challenge myself to learn interesting facts about another volcano.

In addition to the Virtual Volcano Vacation challenge, I will occasionally post time-lapse videos made by others or myself, and repost other more obscure or whimsical content that probably gets overlooked by the more scholarly volcano blogs.
