| Trip into Haleakala Crater Dec.
12th-14th 2001 While the rest of Maui was whipped by gale force winds Jane and I spent a few days in Haleakala Crater at Holua Cabin. The hike in was through 50+ mph winds and the temperature was in the low forties so the wind chill factor was, well, COLD! Nothing a little nip of Blackberry Brandy couldn't handle though... The next day things sort of cleared and we got in a nice hike. Well, it was raining cats and dogs, but it was better than it was on the trip down... Anyway, here are a few pics from the trip. The weather wasn't particularly cooperative for photography, but it was great for reading and relaxing, Fun was had by all.... |
