We couldn't see straight down into the crater because of the snow cornice in the foreground there. For those of you that don't know, it's an outcropping of snow that sticks out past solid ground. It's a no-no to walk on, because if it gave way, it's a fast trip to the bottom of the crater.
You can see where it's starting to separate from the actual mountain here.
