Teide's Eggs/Los Huevos del Teide. Form like snowballs, when molten material breaks away and rolls down a steep slope.

Summited #MtTeide today with @IgnacioGarciaGT from @GeoTenerife on a cracking day! Fab examples of #lava flows, #lavaballs, #obsidian, sulfer #fumaroles, #stratovolcano and more! Jusy incredible 🌋

Today with @GeoTenerife . Graduation, volcanic #ignimbrite arches, baked soil from previous eruptions and #basalt arches! 🌋 #Tenerife #volcanology

First time seeing #LavaTubes and #Pahoehoe in person and it makes the 6am rise defo all worth it! Incredible to see what I've spent so long learning about 🌋 #geology #volcanology #Tenerife #bestday

Yesterday around #LasCañadasCaldera on #Tenerife saw stunning pyroclastic density currents, volcanic vents, A'a lava flow from the 1789 #MtTeide eruption and much more! Absolutely blew me away! 😍🌋😁 @GeoTenerife @GeoIntern #volcanology #geology

Graduation day! Congratulations CV01 and GCGAS interns @charlotte_geo24 @JacksonGeol @geologist_aidan @Geology_Kev - great collaborative research with @Involcan this month in La Palma and Gran Canaria #volcanicrisk #geothermal #exploration #geochem

Last day in GC out in the field and helped Marta complete the last of here 3000 gas samples for her PhD with @involcan on geothermal energy! 😃 heading to get the ferry to #Tenerife now for the @GeoTenerife graduation on Friday and to finally climb Mt Teide 😍🌋 @geologist_aidan

Our interns @geologist_aidan @Geology_Kev help Marta of @involcan with field + lab work to finish this summer's 5-month diffuse volcanic degassing survey for geothermal exploration in Gran Canaria. Nearly there guys! 💪

After arriving in Gran Canaria on Friday I explored the north seeing the Bandama volcanic crater and natural volcanic rock pools in Agaeta
