I’m participating in the online adventure travel and photography magazine LetsBeWild.com’s Wild Weekly Photo Challenge for bloggersThis week’s Challenge is: People in Nature!
The sulfur miner goes down into the crater of Ijen Vulcano and climbs the crater’s slope with a-10 kg of yellowish-sulfuric stones in his basket. The scenery of lake sulfur and the miners are the daily views in the Ijen Crater, Java, Indonesia.

Good lord I didn’t realize that sulphur is mined like this! That’s a heavy load.
I can’t imagine how heavy the load is and how hard they climb the mountain-slope. I just know it’s very very hard.
Wow! How heavy is the sulfur that they are carrying?
It’s more than 10 kilograms for both baskets.
They look heavier! Great photos!
Thank you, Babso2you.. :)
great photos! and those sulfur seems so heavy, i think they are superman from ijen :)
I agree with you.. :)
10kg? They must be strong people! btw, nice shots you got here, nice!
I think they’re one of the strongest people in the world.
Congratulations!
Thank you, Rosie. :)
