My thanks to Howard Sprenger for that excellent reference.
I circulated that URL with the following commentary:
"The splendid natural vistas and the separate plight of the miners make for a riveting pairing, especially in bitter light of how the rudimentary safety equipment lacking would address human welfare here.
What the fate of the destroyed photographic equipment in this
environment argues leaves little to the imagination regarding the dire
medical findings apt to life in the cradle of the volcano. Heat, fire,
acid, fumes and the arduous ascent under load equate to one mean job
description. Vivid."
