OK, well, apparently MVP #2 was waaay too easy because Elizabeth got it on the first try - it was indeed Villarrica in Chile - I'll post something on Villarrica later this weekend. Anyway, for the weekend, I'll leave you with this photo. Hopefully it won't be so easy ... but then again, you all seem to be pretty good at this.

Well, this MVP was a bit trickier than most, thanks to the fact that most scoria/cinder cones look pretty similar and some initial confusion about the photo in the first place. Anyway, lets review!
The photo:
It was identified by the sender as Missouri Bill Hill in Arizona. However, this doesn't…
The first Mystery Volcano Photo (MVP, for short) seem to go well and indeed, the volcano in question was Concepcion in Nicaragua. Congratulations to volcanista for nailing it on the first try. I'll have to keep a tally of the winners for each MVP to name a, well, MVP MVP. So far, the scoresheet…
OK, first off an apology for this week: I will be kind of crazy busy while in Davis - two papers to churn through so we can get them submitted sometime this summer, so blogging may be minimal. So, remember, whenever you hear people talk about how professors have it easy because they get the summer…
The first Mystery Volcano Photo worked out so well, I thought I'd try a second one, this time culled from my personal collection. I'll try to figure out a way to post the scoreboard on the blog so you can keep track of your standing as MVP continues.
Take your best guess!
Enjoy the weekend.
Would that be Galeras, at all?
*sigh*. Well, on Monday when we try this again, expect a doooozy.
Nice job, Ralph.

seems No.3 was too easy as well :) either that or you miss judged just how resourceful and intelligent us readers are :)
I think my readers are too smart for their own good ... !
It's all the numerous volcano cams out there now, plus the recent activity at Galeras -- I actually recognized the fields before I did the volcano (G). Thought I was going to get a point -- Ralph is *fast*!
Looking forward to Monday! Thank you for this feature -- it's fun.
