Aerial view looking upstream, showing both prongs of western arm and site of eventual ocean entry. Old Lae`apuki lava delta is seaward of prominent old sea cliff. Later on this day, eastern prong of PKK flow cascaded down the cliff, crossed the old delta, and entered the ocean to form a new delta (see images for November 6).
