Detailed Description

This photo looks up the Fissure 8 channel, in the region just west of Kapoho Crater, where the flow widened and ponded during the 2018 eruption. The browner lava, with ridges, represents some of the final sluggish lava that covered the channel floor in early August 2018, just prior to Fissure 8 dying. USGS photo by M. Zoeller.
