Day 4 in Hawaii

Sarah and I did an amazing hike in the mountains near Hanalei. It was a 2 mile hike on the Okolehao Trail, with a 1300 foot change in elevation. From the top, you can see 1/5 of the island of Kauai. We tried to take this picture to show how steep the trail was, but it doesn't do it justice!


When we reached the top, we realized because of the Vog- volcanic ash being blown over from the big island- the view wasn't as great as we hoped. In this photo you can see Hanalei Bay behind us.
The ecosystems change drastically as the elevation changes. This was some moss covering a log...

After our long hike, we met up with Dano and Danny for a night out, which really means finding a restaurant open after 7pm!
