The 1995-96 eruption of Ruapehu ejected much of the water from Te Wai a-Moe (Crater Lake), with the remaining lake to the left. The lake emptied in 1995 and was reestablished in 1996. Dome Shelter is above the northern crater rim, to the left of the lake in this view, surrounded by ash and other ejecta deposited during the eruption. Photo by John A Krippner, 1995-1996.
