The Kilauea volcano is erupting within Hawaii Volcanoes National Park. All the action is within the crater. CJ and I went out last night and it was quite a sight.<\/p>\n

The eruption is along a rift in the caldera floor. There are about five splatter cones fountaining lava. The night we were there they were shooting lava into the air maybe 90 feet…with the splatter cones already built up to about 60 feet. They were producing a huge amount of molten material. <\/p>\n

Best viewing was from the Kilauea Overlook. The mile long hike out road on Crater Rim Road was shut down due to gas and airborne material covering the viewing area on that side. Also…that side will be looking into the back of the splatter cones.<\/p>\n

I noticed that the eruption was a bit less vigorous this morning. If you are headed out there, check with me and I will give you latest conditions and best views. Call Don Hurzeler at 8089388383…Hawaii time zone.<\/p>\n

Aloha,<\/p>\n
