Much of Hawai’i Volcanoes National Park has been closed for three months due to hazards caused by frequent earthquakes triggered by collapse events at the summit of Kīlauea Volcano. Although seismicity decreased over the weekend, the temblors – more than 18,000 in the last 30 days – have wreaked havoc throughout the park. Those magnitude 5.0 and higher riddle Highway 11, other park roads, overlooks and trails with dangerous sinkholes and cracks. Jaggar Museum and the USGS Hawaiian Volcano Observatory buildings are damaged and stand empty.
