Two months seems brief to me. Here is Hawaii's volcanos, where pink zones over the decades are labeled "essentially continuous activity". Granted it is an unusually slow and steady example: What I do for viewing is visit on a calm night. Then should develop a catabatic gravity wind flushing fumes downslope and offshore. Night means less officialdom to shoe away visitors and easy ID of hot glowing rock that just looks dull grey in daylight. My biggest fear was falling thru crust over a receding magma channel. So I only did this once in my life, and in a super vigilant state like a cat burglar. Carry backup flashlights, and don't stray far from other crazy visitors. In fact, simply watch a 4k youtube video by a daring intruder; I know some show floating, glowing bubble lava reaching Hawaii waters. I watch a couple sail cruising channels that visit these Canary isles for provisioning. One passed thru just as the eruption was starting and only experienced thicker than usual cloud cover. Now my favorite such channel is approaching there with a little toddler. I wonder if they will be bold and visit, maybe letting the little one get close in a lesson of Swedish self sufficiency, or?
