Views of the Kahauale‘a flow, NE of Pu‘u ‘Ō‘ō

Detailed Description

The flow traveling north from Pu‘u ‘Ō‘ō, which we are informally calling the Kahauale‘a flow, abuts the edge of episode 58 flows erupted during 2007-2008. The flow has also partially surrounded one of the few vestiges of greenery within the flow field—the forested top of the old Kahauale‘a cone.
