Today’s Volcanic Spectacle | Hawaii Big Island Guide

Blessed by the mountain gods 🙏🏼 From Japan’s Kumano Kodo to Hawaii’s Big Island, every day’s journey has been unforgettable. Today, staying in Volcano Village, we miraculously caught Kīlauea’s Episode 20 eruption window—pure luck! 🧚🏻‍♀️ A huge shoutout to the "Big Island Eruption Support Group"—everyone was incredibly helpful and passionate! 🌟 Key Tips from the Trip 1️⃣ Study the group leader’s guide: Hawaii Big Island Volcano Guide (covers viewing spots like D1, D2, E1, E2, etc.). 2️⃣ Monitor USGS’s live webcam on YouTube for real-time updates. 3️⃣ Best viewing spots: D1 & D2 (we parked near Devastation Trail Parking Lot’s three-way junction—main lot was full). 4️⃣ Nighttime gear: Temp drops + rain—bring a down jacket + windbreaker. 5️⃣ Binoculars are a game-changer—feels like watching a live IMAX film! 6️⃣ Lighting essentials: Headlamp + flashlight 🔦 (a must for dark trails). #Volcano #NaturesWonder #Hawaii #TravelGuide #RoadTrip #RicohGR #Hasselblad
