Description
Life shrinks or expands in proportion to one's courage - Anaïs Nin
The magnificent summit of Haleakalā is so beautiful. There are sixteen pu'u . volcanic cinder cones. One of these cinder cones, Pu'u o Māui the highest cinder cone rises 500 feet from the crater's floor.
This is Ka Lu`u o ka `Ō`ō . . and Sliding Sands Trail - Keonehe'ehe'e Trail . . This extremely strenuous trail descends 2,800 ft. in the first 4 miles to the valley floor. Total elevation gain/loss between the trail head and the cinder cone is approximately 1,400 ft.. This trail is currently closed.
The view east over the crater from Kalahaku Overlook on this morning at sunrise was gorgeous . . The Kalahaku rim overlook, at 9,324 feet above sea level provides a beautiful view of the crater floor and when the atmospheric conditions are good the geological details and beautiful colours are fascinating . .
