Adam StallmanSeptember 23, 2015I would recommend viewing this crater at sunset. You can see it during the day and then watch it glow red as night falls. Get there early, the parking lot fills.
Joe StainbrookOctober 1, 2014Learn about volcanoes, watch white steam rise during the day, then at night the steam glows red from the lava! Then spend a few hours doing other things in the park, like hiking trails.- Evan[Bu]January 24, 2012One of the most amazing places to visit on the entire big island. Bring your camer-ah and be prepared to take endless amounts of breathtaking photos!
Allison KaminskiOctober 16, 2015Fingers crossed it's smoking when you are there and you might see it glow!
Lori BSeptember 15, 2011Breathtaking! Make sure to stop by the park rangers at the visitors center or Jaggar's Observation! They know their stuff!
