View of Kīlauea's September 1982 lava flow lobe — April 30, 2021
Detailed Description
HVO scientists hiked along the closed Crater Rim Road on April 30th to retrieve acoustic (sound) sensors for a scientific study. This section of the road was damaged by earthquake activity during the 2018 Kīlauea summit caldera collapse. This stretch of road traverses part of the September 1982 lava flow, visible as a lobe of black rock on the right of the road. Mauna Loa Volcano is visible in the background. USGS photo by N.
