STORYLINE:
Indonesian authorities say they have evacuated most tourists from Mount Barujari on Lombok island after it spewed a massive column of ash into the atmosphere.
The volcano, a popular attraction that is known as the Child of Rinjani because it sits within the Mount Rinjani caldera, erupted without warning on Tuesday afternoon, delaying flights from the international airport on nearby Bali.
The ash column reached 2,000 meters (6,560 feet).
Sixty people including tourists from the US, the Netherlands, Germany, Austria and the United Kingdom arrived at Mount Rinjani on Thursday.
They walked for nearly two days to reach the village of Senaru which is the initial ascent post of Mount Rinjani.
One of the tourists said they had heard a loud bang which they initially thought was the sound of thunder, only to be told it was the volcano erupting.
But he added that they had felt safe and had not been in any danger.
Some 102 people were expected to arrive later on Thursday or Friday morning.
A Disaster Mitigation Agency spokesman said more than 1,100 tourists left the Mount Rinjani area on Tuesday. A similar number left on Wednesday.
There have been no reports of injuries from the eruption.
Rinjani is among about 130 active volcanoes in Indonesia. The archipelago is prone to volcanic eruptions and earthquakes because of its location on the Pacific "Ring of Fire".
