There were other smaller fumaroles to the left, and when I looked through
my close focus binocs at the one I was recording, it looked like mud
splashed on the inside wall. Definitely (sulphuric) steam.
I decided to try the fumarole as it was loud enough to cover any small
sounds I made, plus I didn't have any windscreen besides the foam ones that=
came with them. I notice that either the foam or the vest fabric rubbing is=
making a sound slightly like the crackling of velcro, so I'll have to
figure something out. I didn't have time or supplies to do that before the=
trip.
