An ASTER satellite image from NASA in November 2000 looks down onto the summit crater of Chilques volcano.  Radial gullies descend the flank of the volcano.  Nighttime thermal infrared images on April 12, 2002 revealed hot spots in the summit crater and along the upper flanks, marking the first observations of historical activity at the volcano.
