Circular pit in the western portion of the Pu‘u ‘Ō‘ō
Detailed Description
Little has changed in Pu‘u ‘Ō‘ō over the past month, and a small lava pond still exists within the circular pit in the western portion of the crater. This pit can be seen through the fume in this photo, and a tiny area of incandescence at the edge of the active pond is barely visible.
