The summit of Nevado de Colima is seen here from the top of El Volcancito, a lava dome on the NE flank. A lava flow from Volcancito descended to the lower right. A light-colored east-dipping lava flow is exposed in the scarp wall, and the rim is seen diagonally across the center of the photo. Photo by Jim Luhr, 1978 (Smithsonian Institution).
