It was certainly the easiest volcano I have climbed thus far on my trip, but it certainly didn't make it any less fun. Only about 50 feet tall, and with stairs leading to the Crater at the top I summited in about 3 minutes. A long cry from previous 10 hours climbs. Once at the Summit, you strip down to your shorts, and with the help of someone already inside, carefully dip and slide your body into the luke warm mud that fills the volcano.
It was the strangest feeling, you are incredible buoyant in the mud, which was really really thick, almost like melted chocolate, and it made it very difficult to move.You just kind of bob there, and with the slightest touch from someone glide off in any given direction. You can´t touch the bottom, as I imagine the mud goes down to the center of the earth, but you can´t quite push youself down into the mud either. The best option was too just lay down on your back, laugh, soak up the curative minerals said to be in the mud, and relax.
