Mount Haleakala







We travelled to this mountain on Sunday 6th January and this was the first time we had been able to see the mountain as it had been covered by clouds. The mountain is 10,023 ft high and is an extinct volcano. It is one of the steepest roads in the world going from sea level to 10,000ft in just 22 miles. The view from the top was fantastic and you could see the 2 snow top covered mountains of the Big Island 80 miles away in the distance.
