Las Pilas volcano (right center) rises above a cattle ranch on its SE side.  The rounded eroded peak at the left is the older cone of Cerro Los Tacanistes.  The floor of the Nicaraguan depression at this point is less than 100 m above sea level, a full kilometer below the summit of Las Pilas. Photo by Jaime Incer, 1991.
