Detailed Description
This geologic map of Mauna Loa shows surface flows that have been mapped as of 2013. The flows are color-coded to reflect age. Warm colors indicate younger flows, with red indicating flows erupted since 1832. Cooler colors indicate older flows, such as at South Point, which is covered by flows ranging from 7,000 to more than 21,000 years old (blues and purple).
