Lava lake activity continues in Halema‘uma‘u Crater

 

The usual lava lake activity continues in Halema‘uma‘u Crater with no major changes related to the recent hurricane.

Lake surface migration was from north to south (top of photo to bottom), and occasional gas bubbles were bursting through the crust.
