Above the clouds

As you drive up to the summit the road passes through a bank of clouds and then emerges above the clouds. The view from above the clouds is simply a impressive sight giving one a feeling of being on top of the world. The summit also usually rises above these clouds giving you a clear view of the crater floor. This is the reason so many people come here to watch the sunrise or the sunset. The attraction of the sunrise on the volcano for which people get up at 3 am (so they have time to get to the top), is that you are above the clouds and the effects of the sunrise above the clouds is spectacular.
