I wouldn't have thought so, no. Well worth a trip though if you are ever passing this way again.

Got caught in a tremendous sandstorm in Jaisalmer. Quite an awesome sight standing on the roof of the guesthouse watching a wall of dust roll in off the desert. It was so fine it got everywhere, even if you sheltered indoors - we were finding it in our underwear for weeks afterwards...

This one is pretty little too - only 200 m high, but all bloody soft ash and sand and a bitch to climb in 40C heat.

Note: while I have stood at the top of Anak Krakatau, it wasn't actually doing this while I was there:
