Leslie Almberg, a graduate student from the University of Alaska Fairbanks (EAPSI 2003), begins her first assent of one of the world's most active volcanoes, Unzen Dake on Japan’s Kyushu Island. Almberg is contributing to a large international research collaboration to drill into the conduit of the volcano, which has been closed to the public since its most recent eruptions (1991-95).

Almberg receives some help from Oguri-san, a graduate student in volcanology at the Geological Survey of Japan, as the two search for characteristic clasts from samples representing more than 2,000 meters of drill core from 500,000 years of eruptive history from Unzen Dake Volcano.
