This is the same bank of "Pāhoehoe", with a rock hammer placed for scale (can you tell that my sister is a geologist?).
It's approximately 4 feet wide, 15 feet long, and 2.75 feet tall.

It's a Hawaiian word, meaning "smooth, unbroken lava." The terms that the Hawaiians use for various forms of lava are used in the field of Geology, for no better reason than the fact that the Hawaiian Language has the most complete set of volcanic terminology of any language in the world.
It's the same reason Greek, Latin, and Arabic are so widely used for other scientific disciplines.
Also, here's a link to another photo that I took of this patch of lava, from a different angle; http://www.furaffinity.net/view/1344886/
