In 1868, and an eruption from Mauna Loa caused the largest earthquake in Hawaii, registering as a magnitude 8 by modern methods. The lava flow of 1855-1856 is said to be one of the greatest flows ever seen by modern observers.
When Mauna Loa last erupted in 1984 (left), lava came within 7 kilometers of Hilo (right). Parts of Hilo are built on lava from eruptions that occurred over the past couple of hundred years.

Mauna Loa lava flows can be seen on the Big Island, including crossing the major highways 11 and 190. The dark lava flow shown at left in this photo formed in 1859 and the dark flow shown at right is from about 1800.
