Haleakala Crater

Featured in Alphabet Soup – April 20th, 2009
Featured in Hawai’i ~ Aloha Na’au – March 2009

When asked about Hawaiian volcanoes, most people imagine the Island of Hawai`i and its eruptions at Kilauea or Mauna Loa volcanoes. But East Maui volcano has witnessed at least ten eruptions in the past 1,000 years. It is the giant volcano that peaks out at over 10,000 feet and looms over Maui. Haleakala last erupted in the 1790s. It is 33 miles wide and 24 miles long, and the main crater is 7.5 miles long and 2.5 miles wide.
This is how the crater looks like right after the sunrise, around 6:30am.

    I did join and posted one photo from the crater, similar to this one. Tried to email you too. Too bad you don’t have bubblemail. Thanks for your kind comment.

    Thanks. You invited me to submit this photo into your US National Park group and when I did it was not accepted. I was told it was better suited for other groups. I wonder what’s going on.
