A small amount of red material is coming out of main and most active part of volcanic area plus a great amount of sulphur gas and steam. I am not sure what kind of material is this red one ?! but I can say it is not lava or fire !! perhaps it is hot sulphur . I think these changes worth some kind of research. It is not so safe to get closer to get a better picture by ordinary cameras , but still you can see these red substance in photos.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5178354950821073058" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://bp2.blogger.com/_YotD2ndtX6I/R902ZESTUKI/AAAAAAAACfI/OC5knvv-BEI/s320/Volcanic-Activity-of-Volcano-Damavand_00c.JPG" border="0" /&gt;Volcanic Activity of Volcano Damavand&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Find detailed info for Hiking &amp;amp; Trekking, climbing,ski mountaineering tour Mt Damavand and Iran mountains, nature, ecosystem, gps track waypoint landmark , route and trail map damavand, itinerary climb timing, experienced mountain guide,, photo, picture and video Mount Damavand, news 2008, 2009. google earth satellite image damavand, weather damavand iran دماوند ایران in &lt;a href="http://damavandmt.blogspot.com/"&gt;Mount Damavand Guide&lt;/a&gt; :&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a dir="ltr" href="http://damavandmt.blogspot.com/search/label/All%20Camps"&gt;All Camps&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a dir="ltr" href="http://damavandmt.blogspot.com/search/label/Equipment"&gt;Equipment&lt;/a&gt; , &lt;a href="http://damavandmt.blogspot.com/search/label/FAQ"&gt;FAQ&lt;/a&gt; , &lt;a dir="ltr" href="http://damavandmt.blogspot.com/search/label/Google%20Earth"&gt;Google Earth &lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a dir="ltr" href="http://damavandmt.blogspot.com/search/label/GPS%20Landmark"&gt;GPS Landmark&lt;/a&gt; , &lt;a dir="ltr" href="http://damavandmt.blogspot.com/search/label/How%20To%20Climb"&gt;How To Climb&lt;/a&gt; , &lt;a dir="ltr" href="http://damavandmt.blogspot.com/search/label/Mt%20Damavand%20Info"&gt;Mt Damavand Info&lt;/a&gt; , &lt;a dir="ltr" href="http://damavandmt.blogspot.com/search/label/Photo%20Gallery"&gt;Photo Gallery&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a dir="ltr" href="http://damavandmt.blogspot.com/search/label/Routes"&gt;Routes&lt;/a&gt; , &lt;a dir="ltr" href="http://damavandmt.blogspot.com/search/label/Ski%20Mountaineering"&gt;Ski Mountaineering&lt;/a&gt; , &lt;a dir="ltr" href="http://damavandmt.blogspot.com/search/label/Thermal%20Spring"&gt;Thermal Spring&lt;/a&gt; , &lt;a dir="ltr" href="http://damavandmt.blogspot.com/search/label/Timing"&gt;Timing&lt;/a&gt; , &lt;a dir="ltr" href="http://damavandmt.blogspot.com/search/label/Tour"&gt;Tour&lt;/a&gt; , &lt;a dir="ltr" href="http://damavandmt.blogspot.com/search/label/Video%20Clips"&gt;Video Clips&lt;/a&gt; , &lt;a dir="ltr" href="http://damavandmt.blogspot.com/search/label/Weather"&gt;Weather&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc0000;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Contact Us&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Please note:&lt;br /&gt;1- We hate spams as much as you do, your personal information will never be shared with 3rd parties.&lt;br /&gt;2- To help us distinguish between your email and spams,&lt;br /&gt;quote &lt;span style="color:#cc0000;"&gt;Mt Damavand &lt;/span&gt;in your email subject .&lt;br /&gt;3- Write your email in English.&lt;br /&gt;4- We will reply to all emails which have the subject &lt;span style="color:#cc0000;"&gt;Mt Damavand&lt;/span&gt;,&lt;br /&gt;be patient .&lt;br /&gt;5- If you did not get a reply in 48 hours , look in your spams.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If you have any suggestions about our webpage please don't hesitate to drop us a note.

Although Damavand is believed to be extinct and while no historic eruptions of the Volcano Damavand are recorded , hot springs on the flanks of the volcano and fumaroles (steam vents) in the summit crater suggest that a hot or cooling magma body is still present beneath the Volcano Damavand. This continuing activity, while minor, sulphorous fumaroles still emit gases at the peak, and hot springs in the valleys testify to a remaining heat source , indicates that Mount Damavand is a dormant rather than an extinct volcano.&lt;br /&gt;The most important of these hot springs are located in &lt;strong&gt;Abe garm Larijan&lt;/strong&gt; .&lt;br /&gt;Larijan is located in a village by the same name in the district of Larijan in Lar Valley . The water from this spring is useful in the treatment of chronic wounds, and skin diseases. Near these springs there are public baths with small pools for public use.&lt;br /&gt;If you have enough time after your climb to Mount Damavand , it is a good idea to go to &lt;strong&gt;Abe Garm Larijan&lt;/strong&gt; 5 km from &lt;strong&gt;Reyneh&lt;/strong&gt;, which you may use the benefit of mineral hot water springs of Damavand and spend a night there. Taking a bath in the basin of hot minaral water of Larijan let you forget about all the exhaustion of Mount Damavand climb very fast , and of course , dont forget the persian chelo kabab afterward !&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;vocabulary !&lt;br /&gt;abe = Water&lt;br /&gt;garm = Warm , Hot&lt;br /&gt;Larijan or Larigan= a smal city located in the south east of Damavand&lt;br /&gt;Reyneh = a smal city located in the south of Damavand&lt;br /&gt;abe garm Larijan = hot spring of Larijan&lt;br /&gt;chelo kabab = a delicious Iranian food you must test it yourself&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc0000;"&gt;More Info for Mt Damavand&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Find detailed info for Hiking &amp;amp; Trekking Mt Damavand.

This one sounds remarkably similar to "Lake Licancábur". The summit crater is about 150 m wide and 20 m deep, with a 40-m diameter frozen lake in the bottom. Although the summit rises to 5,670 m above sea level, there is no permanent glacier because of the dry climate.Therefore "Damavand Pool" is at 5,650 meters above sea level. It appears that Damavand Pool cannot qualify as a true lake because it's too small, and because it disappears during the winter. It's not clear if the pool vanishes during the winter because it evaporates completely, sinks into the soil, or because it freezes solid down to the bottom. In 1881 the summit crater had no lake, only snow: This is what Mr. Stack, in 1881, had to say of the view: 'From the summit which consists of a crater with snow and ice, a horizon of 50,000 square miles is unrolled in clear weather. The crater is some 200 yards in diameter, girt with a ring of yellow rocks of nearly pure sulfur, exhaling a pestiferous smell. The hollow is entirely filled up with snow.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://fg.tribes.cc/fr/px/url/320/www.highestlake.com/highest-lake-world.html"&gt;The Highest Lake in the World&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://picasaweb.google.com/lh/photo/UjyHW9RGk57saBwrAn3klg"&gt;&lt;img src="http://lh3.ggpht.com/Sherppa/SKXK8q6vvII/AAAAAAAAH4Q/l-fUQoLwk8M/s400/IMG_2152.JPG" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Mt Sabalan Lake 4800m&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;What a pity the beautiful Mount Sabalan Lake 4800m in Azarbaeijan Iran , is missing in The Highest Lake in the World ranking ?!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc0000;"&gt;More Info for Mt Damavand&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Find detailed info for Hiking &amp;amp; Trekking Mt Damavand.

On most days of the year in clear condition the summit can be seen not only from Tehran but also far from 150 kilometers away . it looks like Fujiyama in Japan but much greater . I believe that its snowy white top with its regular clouds is the most beautiful sight of Iran . There has been no eruption of Damavand in historical times and records so it is regarded as extinct silent volcano. There are some hot springs on its lower slopes like Larijan village . At the summit there is a crater about 150-200 meters across , with a lot of yellow sulfurous rocks and pumice stones. At about 5000 meters there are also some sulfuric gas making a little problem for climbers . Snow covers the crater and upper slopes in winter, spring and autumn . Because of its great height , the view from top of Damavand is very extensive , a big panorama of mountains and valley covering many hundred of square Kilometers . All around are other peaks of the Alborz range, in the north to the Caspian Sea plain and in the south descending to the deserts of central of iran . In fact it is the not only the highest peak in Iran , but also the highest in Middle East and the highest if you travel from Europe eastward to Iran .&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5178305580172005394" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://bp3.blogger.com/_YotD2ndtX6I/R90JfUSTUBI/AAAAAAAACeM/77ETxU7Vg80/s320/Views-of-Mount-Damavand_03.jpg" border="0" /&gt; Mount Damavand Winter View&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Some useful Information for Mt.
