...first outing, to the 2,323-m Mutnovsky volcano, was a day's bumpy ride from Petropavlovsk in a six-wheel-drive bus. Rockslides blocked the road at one point, so we piled out, doing calisthenics to keep warm, while the vehicle roared and slid around the frozen lava.

While we hauled water from a freezing stream, Elena, our cook, served up meat stew, brown bread, fresh tomatoes and cucumbers, cheese and chocolates?Xone of many feasts...

...while Lee's campaign may have benefited at first, it has faded of late. One survey reported that Lee was favored by 48% of voters in mid-November compared with Roh's 36% rating.
