Lava delta collapses, falls into ocean - Lodestone - 01-02-2017
On the plus side, the hike to go see the lava flow just got a little shorter.

Darn good thing one of the lava boats wasn't there at the time.

happens at times... in 2005 a 44 acre bench collapsed... you dont even have to be on the bench to die...
the 44-acre collapse included 34 acres of bench plus 10 acres of former cliff. its always lucky if no one dies, but there have been deaths too...
good older story on lava benches... aloha

When they give us the green light again I would like to go. Why would the walk be shorter?

Just joking; the shore moved a few feet closer.

Map of the collapse delta area 9includes a portion of the old cliff where the old view area ropes were) and the proposed new viewing area that opened this afternoon:

Here is a picture of the old lava viewing area with the lava flow in the background, taken in November. You can see the rope line in the picture and compare it to the map Carey posted.
