Ka'au Crater Rim Hike
Ka’au Crater – November 6, 2011 To the summit and around the rim this time. With Pu’u Ohulehule cancelled today, it was a very last minute decision to hike somewhere on Oahu. There was also a flash flood watch in effect for the weekend, but the skies were clear. It was a plan from the hip hike, which can turn out to be a disaster because planning is just as important as decision making when hiking. What to do? I called Nate and Will to see if they wanted to do something. They did, but weren’t sure what to do. The plan was unplanned, but we decided to meet at the McDonald’s in Mililani. From there we would plan something. At 7a, that is what we did. After I gave my options, we all decided to do Ka’au Crater. Nate and Will haven't done this hike before. The Ka’au Crater hike in my opinion, is one of the best hikes on the island. For me, climbing up the third waterfall is an unbelievable experience. It is an experience that seems dreamlike. There is no other way to describe it. Ever...
