Last week, several PALs took advantage of a rain-less spring afternoon to visit the volcanic island Rangitoto off the coast of Auckland.  The field trip consisted of appreciating the diverse geology and biology while tramping up the volcano, admiring the views of the Auckland skyline, and exploring the lava caves.
