This source has some layers that gets down to that level of detail. It's very flat around Pu'u Huluhulu, but downhill to the east appears to follow and cross Saddle Road at multiple points IMHO.

Flyover video made in Google Earth with the mapped lava flow. HI-SEAS facility looking pretty dicey as the flow from fissure 4 approaches (although it might sit in a kipuka for now based on the steepest descent paths).
