| A marvellous view over the South Crater to Ngauruhoe (during the
Northern Tongariro Circuit) showing the brown pond
usually hidden by a ridge in the crater floor. The rock turret in the bottom
foreground is where the track gains the crest of the crater rim and begins to
climb along and up to Red Crater. The route up Ngauruhoe parallels the white
streak extending down from the mountain's summit crater. |
