Over the weekend I decided to do another trip back to Mauna Loa. This time with more gear and my FPV drone. The weather was not as kind as the first time, but it was a great experience nonetheless. The wind was racing at around 35mph so I was unable to get a few of the shots that I had planned, I’ll save it for next time. These lava tubes are interesting to dwell in, especially when you go into the pitch-black “rooms”. It’s almost like being in an isolation chamber. No light and sounds are muffled like a recording booth. While we probably hiked 3/4 of a mile…We still haven’t made it to the end of this one yet…
We set up lights in the lava tubes and captured some cool shots. Especially with the FPV drone. Crashed on one of the runs which unfortunately cracked the frame of the drone. Here’s a video I put together of the footage along with some photos from the second trip.
