On St. Vincent's Independence Day, I went with some friends from Grace Community Baptist Church to hike the volcano, La Soufriere. The elevation of La Soufriere is 4,048', and it last erupted in 1979. The trail to hike the volcano goes through a rainforest. It was so beautiful! Very few parts of the trail were flat, in fact, most of it felt like walking up steps. We finally reached the top, and thankfully it was a pretty clear day. I was able to look down into the crater of the volcano and even see some smoke coming out. If we had proper equipment, we could have hiked down into the crater. There is a very steep trail that you can go on and hang
