Saturday, October 25, 2014

Work began Friday (Oct. 24, 2014) in the park on the emergency access route between the park and lower Puna on the historic Chain of Craters Road-Kalapana road alignment. Park staff removed the iconic "Road Closed" sign before the first bulldozer rolled onto the lava-covered roadway.
