MOUNTAIN TANGKOKO, CENTRAL SULAWESI

Written back of the book: Mining and Geology Bitung City, the Department of Energy and Mineral Resources of Bitung, 2010.
Other Name: Nini
Name volcano parasites: Angus Stone, Angus Stone New
Types of volcano: Strato
Layout: Ex. Makawidey, district. Aertembaga Bitung
Geography Position G.Tangkoko: 10 31 'N - 1250 11.5' E
Geographical position G. Angus Stone: 10 30.5 'N - 1250 13' BT
High above sea level: G. Nini: 1149 m; G. Angus Stone: 700 m.

A. Form and Structure G. Tangkoko

G. Nini (1149 m) with type Strato has a large crater and the volcano as well as a parasite named Angus Stone (700 m) or New Angus Stone. The volcano is located in the northeastern part Makawidey minahasa Village, District Aertembaga, Bitung.
Examination of the crater conducted in 1971 to see that G.Tangkoko and G. Two Brothers, has a very simple morphology. Both volcanoes are separated by a dike with a stance northwest southeast.
At the foot of the dike is located upstream of S. Batu Putih and S. Air Prang. G. Nini elliptical with the size of the crater ± 2 km x 1 km and a depth of ± 200m.
In the bottom of the crater there is a dome-shaped cap as high as ± 100 m guessing the plug formed in activity in 1801 (Junghuhn, 1844). On the eastern slopes as far as ± 2 km from G. Nini located lava dome Batu Angus and her flow of lava along the ± 2 km. Crater G.Batu Angus top 300 x 325 m and the center line of the crater floor ± 200 m, while the depth of ± 90 m.
During the activity history G.Tangkoko eruptions seem more prevalent in G.Batu Angus and never reported any human casualties. But even so, in the future danger of eruption should be calculated because the area around the volcano, particularly the city of Bitung, continues to grow even more rapidly.

B. How to Achieve Crater Peak

There are three roads to the summit of this mountain, namely:
1. From the port of Bitung -Kp. Pinangunian - Peak
2. From Kp. Makawidey - Kp. Loari - Peak
3. From Kp. Batu Putih - Kp. Paring - Peak

Generally, foreign experts and the nation of Indonesia as Kommerling (1923), Koperberg (1928) and Djatikusumo (1947), climb the mountain peaks of Kp. Makawidey - Kp. Loari - Puncak. Similarly Reksowirogo (1971), make the climb the peak on February 9, 1971, departing from the village Makawidey heading north a little to the east, along the coast through palm plantations. After ± 1 km away, arrived in the village lembahao. Next trip heading north a bit to the east via tegelan the cabin, toward Kp. Loari (up to ± 300 m altitude, average slope 15 ยบ). His ending up on the edge of the crater on the southeastern part of the point of elevation 670 m. The time is in need of Makawidey - the edge of the crater is ± 3 hours.

C. History Events (eruption ever):

Based on the data ever collected from various reports and publications, the volcano eruption may be summarized as follows:

1680: Koperberg (1928) and Kommerling (1923) estimated that the eruption may occur in G. Two Brothers, but Neumann van Padang (1951) considered normal in the central crater eruption which caused damage in the surrounding area.
1683: The eruption in the crater center G.Tangkoko
1694: There was an explosion but no further details.
1801: According Junghuhn (1844), Kommerling (1923) and Koperberg (1928) eruption occurred in G.Tangkoko. The eruption ejects ash, sand and rocks reddish burning. Abu spread to Airmadidi, Kema, Maumbi, even to Manado. After that arises lava plug in the bottom of the crater G.Tangkoko and G. Angus Stone. In that year the same eruption occurred between normal eruption in the central crater, eruptions and eruptions in the lake next to the activity allegedly occurred kawah.Pada lava flows in G.Batu Angus (Neumann van Padang (1951)).
1821: There was a stream of lava from G. Stone Angus.
1843 - 1845: There was an eruption of normal in G. Batu Angus
1880: There was an eruption of G. Stone Angus, accompanied by lava flows.
1952: The increase in activity in G. Tangkoko.
           
The rocks that the eruptions are as follows: andesite augit hipersten found at the foot G. Tangkoko. While the result of the eruption in G. Angus Stone composed of andesite pyroxene (Neumann van Padang, 1951).
D. Observations G. Nini

Feared the possibility of a catastrophic eruption G. Nini, while the settlement is growing, so in an effort to reduce all possibilities and victim built a Volcano Observation Post. With the infrastructure has been the efforts to monitor the behavior of G. tangkoko can be done continuously.
Expected later be obtained from the data to estimate the level of activity of the volcano, or can be caught early if there are symptoms of eruption will occur so that a warning can be given to residents early or on time.
The Volcano Observation Post, often called the post Volcanology, originally located ± 5 km to the west of G. Nini or ± 3 km northwest G. Two Brothers Of The post is not only to observe G. Tangkoko, but monitored G. Two Brothers , Since July 2002 it moved to the village post Winenet Aertembaga District of Bitung.
In the history of G. Nini seems both volcanic activity are inseparable. At the feet of G. Two Brothers is located Bitung City which is an important port city in North Sulawesi and is currently advancing its development by leaps and bounds. The fact that makes the degree of danger G. Nini and its neighboring volcano higher.
Observations constantly performed at this time, especially visual and seismic. Visual observation to monitor all changes or symptoms that appear on the surface while the seismic to determine the movements of magma in the body G. Nini in particular and other volcanoes nearby. Perhaps these symptoms will appear ahead of eruption. Since the start of continuous observations at the volcano, 1986, until the beginning of 1990 has not been recorded any changes or abnormalities vulkaniknya symptoms.

E. Hazard eruption G. Nini and Disaster Prone Areas

In the history of activities G. Nini big eruption ever recorded, namely in the 1801.Abunya spread to Manado. According to Neumann van Padang east, the direction of G. Stone Angus.
With the advent of G. Two sudara in southwestern G. Nini, then the area is dangerous, both because of the lava flows, hot clouds and lava limited rains up in the dike that extends northwest -tenggara which limits both mountains are sprayed into the air, spreading toward danger and very depending on the wind direction and speed at the time of the eruption occurred.
Based on the type and intensity of the danger posed by the greatness of eruption, disaster-prone areas in Tangkoko G. divided into two kinds:

1. Disaster Prone Region II

It is estimated that the disaster-prone region II, which is threatened by lava flows, hot clouds and lava rain generated by the eruption of Mount Tangkoko, is expected to cover the area with a radius of 5 km from the point of activity. But the area in the southwestern part of the semi-circle is relatively safer. Distribution of hot clouds and lava lava flow of rain is expected to vary based on the flow of the river, to the south follow S. Prang, to the north K. Batu Putih. While westward along the coast northwest of the volcano. Comprehensive Disaster Prone Region II ± 89.4 km²

2. Disaster Prone Region I

In the area of ​​Disaster Prone I the danger caused by the spread of the eruption material is ejected into the air when the eruption showed greater intensity.
The area covers an area with a radius of 8 km from the eruption point with a variation that danger can threaten the well along the river because of the lava flows and lava rain. The area to the south covering an area along S. Copper, and north along S. Kawua. While to the west is the area along the coast. Comprehensive disaster prone areas I ± 100.5 km².

Pine Forest and Valleys Broken Heart Challenging Mount Soputan, North Sulawesi

Soputan is one of the most active volcano in North Sulawesi. As Mount Lokon on the other side of the mountain is often erupt recorded each year.
But behind the horror of the Soputan when it erupted, the mountain at an altitude of 1,784 meters above sea level (masl) holds an abundance of charm and beautiful nature.
In addition to the beautiful natural scenery of peaks Soputan, around the mountain is covered with towering pine trees. The view menakjub overlaid on the mountain.

The pine forests on Mount Soputan
To climb this mountain, can be started from the District Tompaso, Minahasa. Precisely in the Village and Village Pinabetengan Toure. Can also go through the Southeast Minahasa, precisely Silian Village.

Meanwhile, if through Silian, directly to the foot of the mountain, with the sandy terrain. At this point also off road vehicles are often used to enjoy the sandy foothills of Mount Soputan tracking.
Hiking Tompaso precisely in Toure, drivable by a motor. Approximately 6 kilometer bike path that must be passed, from the highway Tompaso, to motorcycles parked in a stall.
The path traversed fairly difficult, it took about an hour's drive. The rise and fall in the size of the trail will continue to be encountered.
Soil, sand, rocks and reeds accompany the journey towards Mount Soputan. If not careful, the motor and the rider can fall up on the way.
Until the end of the track, the motor can be deposited in a shop owned om No. For those who often become Soputan, was certainly familiar with om No. Middle-aged man since 1989 to open a shop in the lane Soputan mountaineering.
Soputan in the path of ascent, there are four stalls belonging to residents there encountered. In this modest little eatery nan provided various uses of the climbers. Ranging from food, drink and other items. Warung om No that is motor parks, is the third stall encountered.
Motorcycles parked and travel by foot begins. Only 15 minutes from stall No. om this, I pine to. In this first Pinus, the climbers will be greeted with a welcome board in Soputan.
In the pines I there was a stall, the resting place of the climbers. Here also can set up camp to rest. From pine I, there were about 60 minutes tracking down to base camp, precisely pine II.
Lane passable ascent to base camp easier, especially for novice climbers. There are a lot of climbs that there is encountered. If any, penanjakannya not too steep.
Until arriving at the springs, new climbing steep encountered. Fortunately, the line on the steep climb has been created in such a way, that would not encounter difficulty. There is a clear footing for the foot step.
About 10 minutes through this path, until arriving to the base camp pine two. Camps built among pine trees towering. Base camp is so vast, even the base camp can accommodate hundreds of climbers.

The pine trees are so exotic. This area also became a magnet Soputan. Having tired of walking, all paid off when in this pine forest.
Base camp is always crowded by a climber all the time, if Soputan not erupt. Not surprisingly, besides the beautiful scenery and spacious, pine II is close to the water.
In this same base camp every year the ceremony was held August 17, where the event attracts thousands of climbers to participate. In addition to the ceremony, the last few years have made a giant red and white flag.
Set up a tent and spend the night in the middle of hundreds of pine that grows. Sipping warm coffee, will be slightly brushed cold night at this base camp. Do not forget to bring warm clothes and blankets to spend the night here.
Get plenty of rest in base camp, to recharge to continue onward journey.
Back to about one hour, until arriving to the scenic location. His name is scenery, it is definitely presents a beautiful natural scenery. Track to this scene is also not difficult. Through a sandy path, with no steep incline.
Raisins garden is a welcome for the climbers when arriving at a view of Mount Soputan this. The scenery is really beautiful garden raisins.
The north of this garden presents a view of the old crater of Mount Soputan. This crater was once built sulfur factory, which is now no longer in operation. The scenery of the beautiful crater from the top of the mountain.

Old crater of Mount Soputan
In addition to craters, pine forests look as far as the eye could see. Green expanse that was refreshing. From a distance anyway, Klabat, the highest mountain in North Sulawesi faintly visible.
There are two old crater at Mount Soputan this. Only to be encountered on the way to base camp. This crater can also be visited, there is a special line if you want to this crater.
Do not always satisfied with the beautiful scenery of the old crater of Mount Soputan this. Continue to explore this pathway in the garden raisins, to bring the climber to views of Mount Soputan the stands.
In the scenic spot is evident Soputan from the foothills to the peak. The extent of black sand covered with green vegetation at the foot of the mountain looks beautiful.
This scene became a favorite spot to take pictures. If you do not want to climb to the top Soputan, this spot is quite beautiful to enjoy the beauty of this mountain.

But it feels incomplete if it did not feel the sandy track to the summit of Mount Soputan. At the top of Soputan, there is no mention peak Soputan Soputan child and mother. Soputan children are under Soputan mother, who is a real peak.
Nowadays, climbers usually only up to the top of Soputan children. Due to the summit of Suputan mother, are extremely dangerous. The eruption that often occurs to make the peak higher and steeper. Currently, the slope of the track to Soputan reaches 70 degrees.
Of scenery, the trip took about 60 minutes to arrive at Soputan children. Of view, the climbers had to descend a sandy valley towards the foot of the mountain. Then again be in the sandy terrain.

The valley is called the valley to the top of a broken heart. Named gutted, as it goes through this valley, according to both uphill and felt like a broken heart. So heavy impassable terrain.
Not only the valley, tracking to the top of the Soputan was not exactly easy. Sandy terrain during the ascent will be a little difficult for the climbers.
However tired hike would pay for itself with the views obtained at the top of this child. Landscape scenic spot opposite of the previous, from the top of the child Soputan presents a view of where we stand before. Green expanse of trees, and the extent of black sand in the surrounding mountains.
To climb this peak, should be done in the morning, before the sun sting. Because there is no shelter, let alone hot sand as the sun.
To begin the adventure in Soputan this, you have to drive about 90 minutes from the city of Manado to Tompaso. If using public transport, from the terminal Karombasan mini bus ride majors Manado Manado - Kawangkoan or Manado - Langowan.
Kawangkoan of the terminal, you can hire a motorcycle taxi to the village Toure or Pinabetengan. Or you can also get off at the fork in the road, toward the village of Pinabetengan or Toure. If the rise majors Langowan, you can directly get off at the junction of the highway.
If only walk, it takes a longer time to arrive to the summit. From the calculation of the distance from the highway to stall om No, about 6 kilometers.
Adventure in Soputan is indeed intriguing. Although only a novice climbers, mountain track is still friendly. This mountain also has been used as a favorite tourist area. There were stalls of citizens, as well as never deserted the visitors here.
Feel the beauty of the beautiful pine forests, valleys challenges gutted, sandy tracks and beautiful scenery are presented makes Soputan never disappoint anyone who explore it.

MYSTERY IN MOUNT LOKON, North Sulawesi

Mount Lokon Located west with an altitude of 1,580 meters. Active volcanoes outstanding. Presents a panorama of mountains with craters were so beautiful. Mount Lokon Located west with an altitude of 1,580 meters. Active volcanoes outstanding. Presents a panorama of mountains with craters so indah.Gunung fire Lokon is located between Tomohon and Manado, North Sulawesi (Sulawesi), assigned the status of "CAUTION" by the Center for Volcanology and Geological Hazard Mitigation, because it shows volcanic earthquake activity is quite high.
DIFFERENT STORY ABOUT Mount Lokon
Many mythical story of the past were a little the mystery of why the current volcanic Mount Lokon spewing ash, village Warembungan always shielded from the blast of volcanic ash. Apparently according to myth this village has a strong enough relationship with the attachment and Opo Tatawiaran believed Lokon Mount Lokon as a guard. "
Driven curiosity with stories and myths that developed among villages Warembungan, Tribune Manado then try to seek information from the village elders Warembungan village.
After searching villages that still included in this Pineleng district area, about 15 minutes finally Tribune Manado met a village elders who know a lot about the story Myths about the mystery of why it will never happen rain of volcanic ash in Warembungan when Lokon action.
Opa Laurens Tulus. He is one among the village elders Warembungan village who clearly understand the story of this myth. At the age of 74 years, Opa Laurens was still able to recall vividly the story of his parents in the past about a strong attachment to the relationship between the village Warembungan Lokon mountain.
"When I was younger parents always warned sternly not to do things that are evil and dishonorable," said Laurens Opa opened the conversation.
The reason according to Opa Laurens, if in the villages there Warembungan young girl or boy the wrong village association or deliberately doing things that are immoral then the mountain Lokon erupted definitely. "According to my parents, every Lokon erupted there must be sin or mistakes made by citizens, so we are always reminded to always maintain an attitude especially towards adults," he said.
And so it proved, in the past, especially in the villages Warembungan if there are villagers who caught the error or evil then surely the mountain Lokon spewing ash or lava. "And that's true. Every resident who made mistakes Lokon definitely react," said Opa Laurens.
Only by Opa Laurens, although the mountain Lokon erupted with great force while spitting out volcanic ash material but the village Warembungan always protected from the brunt of the dust and other volcanic material. "That said parents because Warembungan protected by Tatawiran which according to the story is the law of Lokon," said Opa Laurens.
Mount Tatawiran which is currently known as the active crater Tampoluan, elders believed Warembungan used as a protective villagers Warembungan bursts of volcanic ash from Mount Lokon. "That's why since the first village is never in contact with volcanic ash, if any, would very little," said Opa Laurens.
In addition, according to a story also of village elders Warembungan in the past there were very strong psychological bond between the village Warembungan with Opo Lokon is believed to be the primary caretaker of the mountain Lokon. "The elders used to have a very close relationship with Opo Lokon since the warembungan also is the famous original Tombulu very close to Opo Lokon. So the elders used to carry offerings to Opo Lokon," said Opa Laurens.
Because the bonds are closely intertwined here, then when the mountain Lokon action, Warembungan always protected from the adverse effects due to the protection of Tatawiran believed to be in-laws and Opo Lokon Lokon is believed to also be a guard Lokon also guard the villagers Warembungan.
If an when it was found out there was one resident entahkan her citizens Warembungan or the villagers in other areas that still are descendants of people Tombulu fatal mistake or a crime so Lokon erupts, then the elders of the village village Warembungan will gather in one place today the new village is called to submit perminataan offerings as a sign of pardon and forgiveness for the mistakes that resulted Lokon citizens rampage.
"The elders will carry offerings as a sign for mercy also a broom that will be used to repel reinforcements out of the village," said Opa Laurens.
This should be done according to Laurens village elders, because when Lokon amok due to a fatal error that made the villagers make evil spirits gather and meet village. "That's why, when Lokon gush past week can occur more than three times the death of the villagers, it is believed
