Cerro Negro volcano is viewed here on December 6, 1995, from the SE on the flanks of Las Pilas volcano. The photo was taken on the final day of an eruption that began on May 28 or 29. Minor ash eruptions had continued intermittently until August 16 and resumed November 19 until December 6. The eruption was accompanied by growth of a small lava dome in the summit crater and lava flows that traveled down the north flank
