Ojos del Salado aggressively claims the title of the tallest active stratovolcano on the planet, looming right on the border of Chile and Argentina. Because the surrounding climate is incredibly dry, it completely lacks a permanent ice cap despite its massive elevation. It prefers to remain a barren, towering heap of ash and rock just waiting to erupt again.
