Our lava charter on Thursday, March 31st, documented continued activity on Kilauea’s east rift zone, as flows continue to push into the Wao Kele o Puna Forest Reserve, with the distal tip roughly 5 miles to the northeast of Pu‘u ‘O‘o. The crater itself was enshrouded with an area of low clouds, so we weren’t able to view the lava pond. And while breakouts were plentiful on the flow field, most were quite small and overall activity was at a lower level as compared to last week. Here are some photos from the flight…
