Kelud Volcano Mountain

Kelud Mountain (often called Kelut which means "broom" in Javanese; in Dutch called Klut, Cloot, Kloet, or Kloete) is a volcano in East Java province, Indonesia, which is still active. The mountain is located on the border between Kediri District and Blitar regency, about 27 km east of downtown Kediri.
Kelud activity
Since the 15th century, Kelud victims had eaten more than 15,000 people. This eruption in 1586 claimed more victims than 10,000 inhabitants. [1] A system to divert the flow of lava has been made extensively in 1926 and still functioning until now after the explosion in 1919 took the victim to the thousands of lives in floods sweeping settlement of cold lava population.
In the 20th century, recorded Kelud erupted in 1901, 1919 (May 1 [2]), 1951, 1966, and 1990. In 2007 the mountain was again increased its activity. This pattern brings a volcano expert at the 15-year cycle for this eruption.
This mountain activity increased in late September 2007 and continued until November of that year, marked by increasing the temperature of crater lake water, kegempaan increased tremor, and changes color from green crater lake became cloudy white. Status of "watch out" (highest) issued by the Center for Volcanology and Geological Hazard Mitigation since October 16, 2007 which has implications for the population within a radius of 10 km from the mountain (approximately 135,000 inhabitants) who lived on the slopes of the volcano have to evacuate. But the eruption did not happen.
Having had a little subsided, Kelud activity again increased since October 30, 2007 with the rapid increase in temperature of crater lake water and shallow volcanic kegempaan. On November 3, 2007 about 16.00 of the lake water temperature exceeds 74 degrees Celsius, well above the normal symptoms of the eruption of 40 degrees Celsius, causing the temperature gauge broken. Earthquake tremors vibration with large amplitude (more than 35mm) will cause officers to evacuate supervisor, but again does not happen eruption.

As a result of high activity such terjdi new unique phenomenon in history Kelut with white smoke rise from the middle of the lake followed by a dome of lava from the middle of the crater lake since November 5, 2007 and continue to "grow" up to 100m wide size. The experts consider this lava dome that clog channels that magma eruption is not imminent. Energy to be used to encourage the eruption of lava dome eruption in 1990 remains.

Since the incident energy release activity diminished and the November 8, 2007 Kelud status lowered to "standby" (level 3).

Pada lereng Gunung Kelut sejak tahun telah dibuka sarana jalan darat untuk mempermudah para wisatawan serta penduduk sekitar menuju pucak Gunung Kelud. Gunung Kelud juga telah menjadi obyek wisata Kabupaten Kediri

Bromo-Tengger-Semeru National Park is in East Java, Indonesia.

Understand

The national park is named after its two mountains, Mount Semeru (the highest in Java at 3,676 metres), Mount Bromo (the most popular) and the Tengger people who inhabit the area.

Mount Semeru also known as Mahameru ("Great Mountain"), is one of Indonesia's most active volcanoes. What stands out most about this mountain is the fact that it erupts periodically (and very reliably so). Every 20 minutes or so, the volcano belches out a huge cloud of steam and smoke, sometimes interspersed with ash and stones. Climbing Mount Semeru requires some planning and a permit from the national park authority. The mountain is often closed due to its highly active nature.

Mount Bromo (2,329 metres) is easily recognized as the entire top has been blown off and the crater inside constantly belches white sulphurous smoke. It sits inside the massive Tengger caldera (diameter approximately 10 km), surrounded by the Laut Pasir (Sea of Sand) of fine volcanic sand. The overall effect is unsettlingly unearthly, especially when compared to the lush green valleys all around the caldera.

The major access point is Cemoro Lawang (also Cemara Lawang or Cemora Lawang - blame the East Javanese accent!) at the northeastern edge of the caldera, but there are also trails from Tosari (northwest) and Ngadas (southwest). The village of Ngadisari, on the road from Probolinggo about 5.5 km before Cemoro Lawang, marks the entrance to the national park. Both Cemoro Lawang and Ngadisari are rather picturesque, with brightly-painted houses and flower beds outside.

The Tenggerese

Roro Anteng and Joko Seger Javanese folklore has it that during the 15th century, Princess Roro Anteng (daughter of the Majapahit King Brawijaya) and her husband Joko Seger fled marauding Islamic forces and ended up in safety at Mount Bromo. Here they developed a new kingdom and named it Teng-ger using parts of their respective surnames. The Kingdom of Tengger prospered and their religion flourished but the royal couple were unable to produce an heir to the throne. In desperation they prayed and meditated on Bromo for many days before the crater opened and the almighty god Hyang Widi Wasa announced that they would be given children with the condition that the last borne was to be sacrifcied back to the mountain. No less than 25 children were produced but many years later Roro and Joko broke the condition and refused to sacrifice their last borne, Prince Kesuma. A dreadful eruption of Bromo followed and swallowed Kesuma into the crater. To appease the great God, Kesuma's brothers and sisters held an offering ceremony at the crater once every year and this still happens today - the Upacara Kasada held on the full moon of the 12th month (Kasada) of the Tenggerese calendar.

The area in and around the park is inhabited by the Tenggerese, one of the few significant Hindu communities left on the island of Java. The local religion is a remnant from the Majapahit era and therefore quite similar to that on Bali but with even more animist elements. The Tenggerese are believed to be descendents of the Majapahit prices and were driven into the hills after mass arrivals in the area of devoutly Muslim Madurese in the 19th century. These Madurese immigrants were labourers working for Dutch coffee plantation owners and the native Hindu people of the region soon found themselves outnumbered and either converted to Islam or fled to the inhospitable high mountain tops where they remain today.

The religion is quite low key though (certainly when compared to Bali) with the most visible manifestation of faith being the rather austere Poten temple in the sea of sand. The Tenggerese number about 600,000 and they reside in 30 villages scattered in and around the park with smaller communities elsewhere in East Java.

For many visitors, the sight of the angular-faced, sunburned, moustachioed Tenggerese wrapped in poncho-like blankets, trotting about on ponies with craggy mountains as the backdrop, more resembles Peru than Indonesia!
