Mt. Usu continues emitting smoke

TOYA, Japan - Smoke continues to escape from a crater on the western part of Mt. Usu in southwestern Hokkaido on April 4, five days since the volcano's first eruption after a 23-year sleep. Ash released from the mountain's numerous craters obscures nearby Lake Toya and its hot-spring resort town (at bottom of photo).
