Hawaii – Beautiful Lava Flow Above Pali

Sizable pahoehoe lava flows, a tumulus outbreak, and numerous skylights, all within a steamy flow field… this surface activity within about 3 miles of the vent, but still a mile or more above the Pali… and nothing else anywhere on the flow field Thursday morning. Wonderful activity! Merry Monarch Festival Ducky joined Leilani, Special Return Guest (two weeks in a row!), Scott Longman, Bruce Omori and me as Paradise Helicopters’ superb pilot, Robert Mitchell guided us over Pele’s amazing canvas… good to have you back on Hot Seat Hawaii, Rob!
