    Introduction: The Hawaiian Islands, a popular tourist location due to the inexpensive plane fare from the West Coast, are a convenient vacation get away. When I traveled to the Big Island of Hawaii for a month trip during summer break in July 2013, with my parents, I was able to explore many of Mauna Loa and Kilauea’s volcanic activity, history, and land formations.

While there I began wondering what would happen if all volcanic activity was to cease and exactly how long it would take for the islands to completely erode away.
