Kilauea Lava Flow June 16, 2010

A major flow has broken out from the southern shields and headed in the direction of the northwest part of the Royal Gardens subdivision at about the 1600 elevation and four miles from the ocean. The flow on the eastern edge was composed of gas rich lava which forms a frothy crust known as shelly pahoehoe. This crust easily folds over itself as it is carried downstream and encapsulates gas pockets within. These voids within the crust allow the thin crust to break open like egg shells and may pose a hazard if walked on after they cool. Its appearance is very distinct so it is very easy to avoid.
