Detailed Description

This view, looking northeast, shows the distal part of the flow, with the flow lobe behind Pahoa Marketplace to the right and the newer north-northeast advancing lobe to the left. The north-northeast lobe is following a drainage that leads to the steepest-descent path that crosses Highway 130 about 1 km (0.6 mi) south of the Maku‘u Farmer's Market. The flow, however, is still 3.5 km (2.2 mi) upslope from that spot and moving slowly.
