Top of the morning to you bananahead.
Thank you for the many good reminders of how benches can and have collapsed. Maybe A short 10-minute volcano hazard and safety video should be shown to most tourists who venture out to visit the lava flow?
I have been out hundreds of times to visit the lava flows over the past several decades. Never have I seen so many careless, disrespectful, or clueless visitors as this flow has brought. During our Recent lava viewing trip, We saw many Tourists walking over the active lava tube or hanging over the cliff's edge to get better photographs of the lava entering the ocean. Some tourists are even bringing alcohol in place of water while others are throwing rubbish into the flow or poking the lava flows fresh breakouts with sticks. We even saw a little 8-year-old tourist girl walking alone, she had become separated from her parents for awhile. We talked with her for about 20 minutes about her favorite PokeMon games until she thankfully spotted her Dad. Jmo's
