as always, you are the man. A few friends and I are going to hike out from the HVNP side via chain of craters road after 2:30pm on Monday the 22nd. Maybe we will meet up!?! I know it'll be a LONG hike, nothing we aren't unfamiliar with. It'll be a new experience for some of the newer tour guides of ours. Keoki

According to another hiker, this flow had crossed Paradise between King and Queen Wednesday night and was heading towards Orchid, the lowest street on the pali. It should reach the base of the pali soon. Have fun.

In my experience, one can feel the muffled explosions underfoot in forested areas with deep soil. Other areas with more recent flows and a thin layer of vegetation have more underground cracks where methane can accumulate and explode more violently. You can see the aftereffects of a big explosion on photo 63, dated July 9, 2003 in the smugmug link.

The methane explosions which are warned about generally happen in the area ahead or to the side of lava flows where people might be standing. Methane is released from organic matter in the soil or roots as a result of the intense heat from the lava overhead. It can then seep and collect in large cracks in the old lava and mix with the oxygen already there.

As the mixture of gasses makes its way to the surface, it is ignited by the lava or burning vegetation and the underground accumulation explodes. If the explosion is big enough, it can send boulders flying into the air.

The movie was exciting, but very unrealistic. I try and keep upwind from the lava to avoid the smoke and heat being blown my way, so it wasn't too hot that day. I was also walking on old surfaces which were still cool. Sometimes I have to walk on recently crusted lava to reach the flowing lava.
