La Soufrière, Active volcano in Saint Vincent, Caribbean
La Soufrière rises to an elevation of 1,234 meters above sea level, featuring multiple craters and a complex geological structure at its summit.
The volcano's eruption in 1902 devastated the northern region of Saint Vincent, resulting in 1,680 casualties and significant changes to the landscape.
The geological formations and terrain patterns of La Soufrière influence local agricultural practices, with farmers cultivating crops on the mineral-rich volcanic soil.
Visitors need to register at the forestry department, bring water supplies, and wear sturdy hiking boots for the four-hour ascent to the summit.
The 2021 eruption produced ash clouds reaching 16 kilometers into the atmosphere, affecting neighboring Caribbean islands and requiring mass evacuations.
