Update

P.S.  Update  June 19, 2018
My condo was less than 2 miles from the crater or lava lake as it was called and you could see the glow from my place. It was more active than it was last year when I was there and even at times had spurted some lava. It was the day I left that the crater collapsed. Some of my favorite photo spots were on highways 132 and 137. That intersection is now under the lava river that yesterday was flowing at over 26,000 gallons a second. All along 137 there were warm tide pools heated by geothermal activity some along the shore some just back in the jungle. There was even a large one that was a public park. The entire bay at the end of 132 is filled in and the flowing lava is building new land beyond the filled in bay. Hope it will leave some more warm tide pool to swim in.

The photo "New Growth in Lava" was at the intersection of 132 and 137 and now it is under the flow and the photo "Unnamed Road" is just to the North of the intersection, great trees hope they survived.
