The Big Island called Hawaii has five active volcanoes, including Mauna Loa and Kilauea in Hawaii Volcanoes National Park (HAVO). Recent volcanic eruptions are commonly out of rift zones on the flanks of the volcanoes, such as the Northeast Rift Zone on Mauna Loa and the Southwest and East rift zones on Kilauea.
