The foreground crater in this aerial photo from the SW is the principal summit crater of 3432-m-high Irazú volcano.  The massive stratovolcano in the background is 3340-m-high Turrialba volcano.  Roads of widely divergent quality lead to the summit craters of both these historically active volcanoes, the two highest in Costa Rica. Copyrighted photo by Katia and Maurice Krafft, 1983.
