April 17 - Fire on the Mountain

Was this Prometheus's fire?  The first to light the torches of prehistoric man?
This red flicker in a cloud of sulfurous smoke, who did it tempt to defy the gods?  Who first burned a bundle of sticks?  Was it this volcanic hide away?  an outcropping only slightly larger than the rest around it?  or another - equally tempting - portal to the center of the earth
