Volcano Acting Up #5: Pulsing Incandescence

[Carey]

Jerry, did we follow you guys? (I swear I talked to you in Kaimu - Kalapana .... but not positive.... were you there? Jim & I were with Pam, Noel & Keith....) The view up at the beginning of the walk is really impressive (much better than a few weeks ago) but man'o'man, the plume! with lightning & splatter & tremendous pyrotechnics flaring up a hundred feet or so (not sure the height, but high enough to be seen from a good distance).... if you haven't been there in a while, this is the time (& for those who can't make a long walk, you get a very good view right at the end of the road, where the start of the rough lava walk is ...... right at dusk is the best time... the plume comes alive with it all)
