Gunung Patah is a densely forested, eroded Quaternary volcano SE of Dempo volcano. The age of its latest eruptions is not known, although a possible new crater (the light-colored area in the center of this photo) was observed in 1989 about 6 km SE of the summit of Patah volcano. Another crater containing a lake is visible 1 km to the south (bottom-center). Photo by Michael Savill, 1989.
