I't more like mud than lava. Anyway, it can be very dangerous. My family is from the north west of Arentina (Jujuy). In some areas there is a somewhat similar problem that is not caused by a volcano, just unusual heavy rains that create mud. We even call it "Volcán" (volcano).

There was a big disaster a few years ago [1], but smaller one are usual and they have to rebuild the roads and bridges from time to time.

It seems to me that years ago people would point out a stretch of dead trees killed by a mud flow from Mount Rainier.
