The backcountry areas and summit of Mauna Loa, the remote coastal sites from ‘Āpua Point to Ka‘aha, Hilina Pali Road and Kulanaokuaiki Campground, Mauna Loa Road, and Nāmakanipaio Campground and A-frame cabins are now open.

Heavy rain is still expected through Saturday, and park visitors are reminded to drive with caution.
