A view from Mamalahoa Highway on the Big Island, Hawaii, with Kohala Mountain and Maui in the background

Looking north from the old Mamalahoa Highway, in the distance is Kohala Mountain on the right and Maui on the left. The black lava curving down to the ocean is the Kaʻūpūlehu lava flow from Hualalai Volcano. This flow, which occurred in 1800/1801, was the last time Hualalai erupted, though the volcano is still considered active.
