Mount Rinjani with the highest point of 3,726 m above sea
level or 12,224ft, dominates most of the scenery of the northern part of Lombok
Island. To the west of the Rinjani cone there is a caldera with an area of approximately
3,500 m × 4,800 m, extending east and west.
On the eastern side of the caldera there is Mount Baru (or Mount Barujari) which
has a crater measuring 170m × 200 m with an altitude of 2,296 - 2376 masl. This
small mountain last erupted on 25 October 2015 and 3 November 2015, after previously
recorded erupting in May 2009 and in 2004. If the 2004 eruption did not cause
any casualties, the 2009 eruption had indirectly killed 31 people, due to flooding
on Tanggek river due to lava pressure to Segara Anak. Previously, Mount Barujari
had recorded erupting in 1944 (as well as its formation), 1966, and 1994.
