Mount Merapi's worst eruption in a century
MOUNT MERAPI, Indonesia (AP) -- Searing gas avalanched down an Indonesian volcano with a thunderous roar, torching houses and trees and incinerating villagers as they fled Mount Merapi's worst eruption in a century. Scores of bodies found Friday raised the death toll to 122. The injured - with clothes, blankets and even mattresses fused to their skin by the 1,400 degree Fahrenheit (750 degree Celsius) heat - were carried away on stretchers following the first big explosion just before midnight.
Friday's explosion - said by volcanologists to be the biggest since the 1870s - hit hardest in Bronggang, a village nine miles (15 kilometers) from the crater. Soldiers joined the rescue operations, pulling at least 78 bodies from homes and streets blanketed by ash up to one foot (30 centimeters) deep

Thousands of people are trying to reach Yogyakarta's Maguwoharjo stadium following the most violent eruptions since Mount Merapi erupted on 26 October 2010.
The stadium has been set up as a central reception center as many IDP camps on the slopes of the mountain had to be evacuated over-night.

The violent eruptions of late October 2010, levelled forests, crops and villages on the slopes of Mount Merapi and covered the area with a thick layer of ash.
Panoramic view of our observation spot for a few hours near Merapi's summit. The erupting summit cone is to the left and extinct and slightly taller Gunung Merbabu is at the right. The view between the two is largely obscured by Merapi's ash.

I took this shot of the volcano when I flew into the Solo airport. It was a clear morning with a great view of the erupting volcano. I have been in Yogyakarta this week working on the emergency response with UNICEF and the government of Indonesia.
Two people check the list of 77 injured from Thursday's violent eruptions on Mount Merapi being treated at Dr. Sardjito Hospital.

Many of the elderly lost all their lives work, their homes, their possessions and, in many cases, relatives who were killed by the explosive eruptions.
The city of Yogyakarta, home to some three million residents, is now covered by a thin layer of ash. Torrential rains are now mixing with ash and debris and rushing down the slopes clogging rivers. Two villages have already experienced flooding as rivers swollen with black sticky mud burst their banks.

Nick, Colin, my dad and I did a night hike up Gunung Merapi, the highly active volcano on the north side of Yogya. My dad made it up halfway, a very commendable feat, and Nick, Colin and I made it all the way up to the top. Here are some photos of the three of us at the summit as the sun rose.
Just three days ago, this was a reception center for some 3,000 people on the slopes of Mount Merapi. Now the tents stand deserted and equipment litters the site, indication that the center hastily abandoned during the latest eruptions.
