Erika and I set out for the day to hike a trail called Makapu'u, in which case we couldn't find and ended up at the Koko Head shooting rage. We we very close to the Koko Head Crater hike so we decided to do that instead.
The summit of Koko Head was used in WWll as a radar facility. Too steep for automobiles, soldiers and ammo were taken to the peak in old railroad carts. The carts to take Erika up were gone, so people are left to hike the steps in between the tracks. 1050 steps to be exact. But the views are well worth the work.
Gun Range : Who needs a gun this big? Seriously? Intense though.
I thought this was myself for a minute and quickly remembered that I didn't handle any firearms that day. Great shirt though.
Cacti : Usually only found at the highest points of the island.
Underground tunnel at the top used in WWll.
A few photos from the iPhone.
Very "Goonies-esk" part of the hike. Railroad with quite a drop through the tracks.
