Pu`u `O`o Crater Activity

Disclaimer

This panorama is a composite of three images from a research camera positioned on the north rim of Pu`u `O`o's crater. The images update every 15 minutes. At times, clouds and volcanic fume obscure visibility. The camera is subject to sporadic breakdown, and its remote location makes immediate repair impossible. Cameras can be where people should not. Pu`u `O`o is off-limits to the general public because of multiple and significant volcanic hazards.
