Hawaiians used the word

Introduction to Kilauea Volcano, Hawai`i Eruption Update Eruption Summary Hazards History Panorama Images Kilauea -- Perhaps the World's Most Active Volcano View north-northeast across Kilauea's summit caldera and Halema`uma`u crater (left of center) Kilauea is the youngest and southeastern most volcano on the Big Island of Hawai`i. Topographically Kilauea appears as only a bulge on the southeastern flank of Mauna Loa, and so for many years Kilauea was thought to be a mere satellite of its giant neighbor, not a separate volcano. However, research over the past few decades shows clearly that Kilauea has its own magma-plumbing system, extending to the surface from more than 60 km deep in the earth. In fact, the summit of Kilauea lies on a curving line of volcanoes that includes Mauna Kea and Kohala and excludes Mauna Loa. In other words, Kilauea is to Mauna Kea as Lo`ihi is to Mauna Loa. Hawaiians used the word Kilauea only for the summit caldera, but earth scientists and, over time, popular usage have extended the name to include the entire volcano. 11 October 2002 The eruption of Kilauea Volcano that began in 1983 continues at the cinder-and-spatter cone of Pu`u `O`o (high point on skyline). Lava erupting from the cone flows through a tube system down Pulama pali about 11 km to the sea (lower left). Map of Kilauea, including location of Pu`u `O`o Sketch showing magma reservoir & active lava-tube system Kilauea is the home of Pele, the Hawaiian volcano goddess. Hawaiian chants and oral traditions tell in veiled form of many eruptions fomented by an angry Pele before the first European, the missionary Rev. William Ellis, saw the summit in 1823. The caldera was the site of nearly continuous activity during the 19th century and the early part of this century. Since 1952 there have been 34 eruptions, and since January 1983 eruptive activity has been continuous along the east rift zone. All told, Kilauea ranks among the world's most active volcanoes and may even top the list. | Eruption Update | Eruption Summary | Hazards | History | Kilauea Facts Map of the Island of Hawai`i Location 19.425 N 155.292 W Elev. Above Sea Level 1,277 m 4,190 ft Area 1,430 km 2 552 mi 2 (13.7% of Hawai`i) Volume 25,000-35,000 km 3 6,000-8,500 mi 3 Hawaiian Meaning The Hawaiian name "Kilauea" means "spewing" or "much spreading," apparently in reference to the lava flows that it erupts. Most Recent Eruption Continuous since January 3, 1983 Number of Historical Eruptions 61, not counting the continuous lava-lake activity in Halema`uma`u crater Summit Caldera The caldera itself has no Hawaiian name other than Kilauea but houses the famous crater, Halema`uma`u; "hale" is a house, "ma`uma`u" a type of fern. Kamapua`a, a jilted suitor of Pele, is said to have built a house of ferns over Halema`uma`u to keep Pele from escaping her home and causing eruptions. The ploy failed. Dimension: 6 x 6 km (outermost faults), 3 x 5 km (main depression) Depth: 165 m deep Age: probably several incremental collapses 500-210 years ago Oldest Dated Rocks 23,000 years old Estimated Age of Earliest Subaerial Eruptions 50,000-100,000 years Estimated Age of First Eruption of Kilauea 300,000-600,000 years before present Hawaiian Volcano Stage Shield-forming stage The URL of this page is http://hvo.wr.usgs.gov/kilauea/ Contact: hvowebmaster@usgs.gov Updated: 6 December 2005 (pnf)

Why not try something completely different for an overnighter, a weekend, or a week or longer? Escape the traditional inns and highways of modern civilization and head for the wilds of distant continents, faraway oceans, and breathtaking vistas. Go alone or take along a good friend or close relative. You can even join up with a group of new acquaintances as you explore the unknown in untold combinations and destinations. At Intrepid Travel (www.intrepidtravel.com), you can have your choice of many unusual locations and activities. Whether you are at the beginning or intermediate level of a particular skill like canoeing or hiking, expert guides can design a trip to match you with likeminded travelers so that everyone has a good time. You will visit exotic, off-the-beaten-path locations and share the food and customs of the local inhabitants. Whether you visit New Zealand, Asia, or South America, there is a group of people waiting to experience new thrills that will not be quite complete without your presence. Another agency that will build tours around your skills, interests, or abilities is Adventure Travel Tips (http://www.adventuretraveltips.com/). With the help of experienced guides, you can plan a delightful trip that will let you savor Old World charm or New World wilderness as you map an itinerary of challenging delights. Learn the geographical area that you will visit, find out how to pack and what to bring, and get the cheapest fares and hotel rates as well as the most indigenous conditions, if that is what you prefer. Otherwise, you can book lodging at competitive rates and take unusual side trips that are not for everyone that might include a European cooking skill, a mountainous bike course, a deep sea snorkeling dip, or an educational walking tour. You will meet the regular residents, take in local color, and experiment with an entirely different way of living than you have heretofore encountered. Your adventure guide will point to helpful reading or resources as well as prepare you for packing and planning this unparalleled vacation. You may event want to talk a co-worker or friend into coming if you dont have a special family member or pal to take with you. Why put off the adventure of a lifetime when you can work with travel experts to make it happen now? Trips like these are not as expensive as you might think. All they take is a little bit of forethought and organization to let the fun begin.
