Kilauea Volcano Lava Completely Covers Road
From Times Wire Reports
Lava from Kilauea Volcano on the Big Island cascaded into the ocean at three points as thousands of visitors trekked to witness the latest display.
The current breakout of lava began May 12, and reached the sea July 19.
On Thursday morning, the lava finished covering the remaining isolated segment of Chain of Craters Road at an area known as Highcastle--a popular viewing spot in the early 1990s.
