This video shows a draining event in the lava pond within the Halema`uma`u vent cavity. The lava column exhibited cycles of filling and draining of the vent cavity, with each cycle lasting a few minutes. As the pond drains, lava cascades into a small hole on the east side (right) of the cavity floor. Also, lava that was covering a large bench to the west of the main pond drains back, with large plates of crust sliding over the edge.

  • I really love your video and put the link of it on a facebook group "world volcanoes". I will go to Hawaii on April. Is it possible to see it as well as you did ?

    Sincerely,

    Carole.
