	About Maui
		Maui is a leading whale-watching center in the Hawaiian Islands due to the fact that many Humpback whales winter in the sheltered Hawaiian islands channels between the islands of Maui county.
		Among the many features on Maui popular with tourists are the "Road to Hāna" (the drive from the central valley to Hāna and beyond), the drive up to Haleakalā crater, Makawao (and Maui's Upcountry region), the Iao Valley, and Lindbergh's grave (near Kaupo on East Maui).
		At sea level Maui has a remarkably stable tropical climate with highs in the region of 29 °C (80 to 85 °F) and lows around 20°C (65 to 70 °F); rainfall is greater in the northern hemisphere winter (wet season is November through April).

		This active volcano is in its rejuvenated stage, it last erupted about 1790 and has a poorly-established eruptive recurrence interval of several hundred years.
		A large summit depression, originally interpreted as a caldera and later as an erosional feature, may have been formed from the coalescence of the headwalls of two landslides to the north and south of the summit.
		The volcano consists of shield-stage lava (1.1 million to 900,000 years old), postshield-stage lava (860,000 to 410,000 years old), and rejuvenated stage lava (younger than 400,000 years old).

		Eruptions at shield volcanoes are only explosive if water somehow gets into the vent, otherwise they are characterized by low-explosivity fountaining that forms cinder cones and spatter cones at the vent, however, 90% of the volcano is lava rather than pyroclastic material.
		Shield volcanoes are the result of high magma supply rates; the lava is hot and little-changed since the time it was generated.
		Shield volcanoes are the common product of hotspot volcanism but they can also be found along subduction-related volcanic arcs or all by themselves.

		Finally, after a lengthy dormant period, some volcanoes have a rejuvenation stage — a sort of last hurrah — that might produce 1 percent of its total life’s output.
		Interviews conducted in the mid-1800s with South Maui residents produced stories of the volcanic activity that had been passed down from elders, adding to the belief that the eruption occurred late in the 18th century.

		The massive Haleakala shield volcano forms the eastern portion of the dumbbell-shaped island of Maui.
		Subsequently the crater has been partially filled by a chain of young cinder cones and lava flows erupted along a major rift zone that extends across the basaltic shield volcano from the SW to the east flanks.
		The most recent eruption of Haleakala was thought to have occurred between the exploring voyages of La Perouse in 1786 and Vancouver in 1793, but uncertainty surrounds the date of this event, which could have occurred in about 1750 AD (anthropological evidence) or several centuries earlier (radiocarbon dates).
