Good and bad news,, observations that is.. It does appear in this photo that the flow has found a down hill direction which should send it south.. It looks as if it is finished going around the crater and there's a down hill southern direction it can follow.. Bad news for the Kalapana area providing it does continue in this direction... especially it's one of my favorite areas in Puna..
