Description
Walking in the dark (3:30 am) and headed to the Pali where the lava is coming down. A lot of ups, downs, cracks and a few ground breaking collapses. But when climbing up the Pali (hill) in the dark, it is a little more difficult especially when there is a lot of a'a around. When I arrived at the base of the Pali, a tiny bit of sunrise came. I could see and zig-zag my way up to the 450 ft elevation level where the lava was coming down. The harden lava found here was a little more porous as compared to the pahoehoe on the costal plains... Pahoehoe can change into a'a but never the reverse. In some areas, it was difficult to tell which was new and which was old but the tiny vegetation on the old lava rocks told the story. This was taken on Sunday. The lava has erased my foot prints since then and is nearing the costal plains. Aloha and thank you for viewing

You know how I love these lava fotos of yours---this one is no exception. One of these days, I WILL see it for myself!!
So you are still unable to sleep, eh? LOL I'm glad because these travels you make are so interesting. I wonder how light this lava is when it hardens...I've seen some so very porous and light, and I've handled some so very heavy. Wonderful lines in this.
Great shot. I wouldn't sleep either knowing that lava is creeping towards me :)
Stunningly beautiful!
Another great shot Errol I really enjoy these lave flows !! ( I can't sleep nights either )
Your shots of the lava flow are spectacular, and this one is especially wonderful!
Exceptional capture, as always! :)

It does look lighter, is it because of more ash or air? As always outstanding image!
An amazing capture of this lava. You seem to live dangerously to get the shot. Please be careful.
Beautifully captured. It sounds dangerous and warm?
The continuing saga - great stuff!
