I recently hiked Mount Ka'ala, the highest peak on O'ahu standing over 4,000 feet above see level. The trail starts on the west side, Waianae and climbs straight up the side of the mountain for a few miles. The trail is really steep and involves some rope and rock climbing. It was freezing cold at the top, surrounded by whipping clouds, I could barely see around me. This photo is from the beginning of hike but the best view we had the whole time.
