Lifeless Scar Next to the Poás Volcano

Close to the Laguna Caliente the acidity of the fog and rain is around 2.0 pH and may be even less. The ruling winds here blow to the west. As a result, around the crater and to the west of it 3.5 km long and 1 km wide, lifeless, naked scars have formed, surrounded by jungle.
