Lava Tube
It had been a while since I had hiked out the lava, so I went again last night. In January, the beach that had formed since summer collapsed into the ocean. Since then, there has been a single lava tube, several feet wide, spraying into the ocean. The height of the lavafall was 40-50 ft.
The National Park now keeps the crowds ~1000 ft from the lava and ~200 ft from the cliff. Unlike before, when 100% of visitors would step over the ropes to see the lava and the rangers didn't care, they are actually enforcing the restriction now. It was actually a bit difficult to get a clear view of the lava.
