Above Hanalei

There is beauty everywhere you turn on the north shore of Kauai, and a whole lot of tourists. Wanting a more intimate experience with this unique landscape, John found the Okolehao Trail on Yelp. It was a challenging hike but exactly what I hoped for. It begins just past the Taro fields and climbs a mountain right into the clouds.

I am so glad you are getting out of the crowds and into the clouds!

Here's the brilliance without the flowers! I love this drama and sense of altitude.

Aloha Randall,
I just caught up with this and your previous Kauai post. What a treat for a Portlander in desperate need of a sunshine and warm weather fix.
I'm happy you're able to find the time to share the beauty with your fans.
Enjoy!
Sincerely,
Gary.

Now I see why you dreamed about Gerald and me. On our 50th anniversary we stood on the exact same spotfrom which you took the picture of the valley. I'll send our picture to you when I figure out how to make it smaller.
Your mountains are beautiful.
