View of Pu‘u ‘Ō‘ō from the south side
Detailed Description
View of Pu‘u ‘Ō‘ō from the south side, looking north. The current crater in Pu‘u ‘Ō‘ō is only about half the diameter of Pu‘u ‘Ō‘ō's previous crater, which is defined by the rim of the tephra cone remnants in the foreground and background. That older crater's western edge extended to about the left edge of the photograph. The current crater is 25-30 m (~80-100 ft) deep.
