I have been to the top of Haleakela more times than I can count and the view is never the same.
Looking west for the sunset from near the summit, the town of Kehei can be seen far below.

On the hike to Waimoku falls in Haleakala National Park you cross through a bamboo forest that towers over you. In places the bamboo is so tall and dense that its extremely dark on the path, however occasionally rays of the Sun slip through the tall canopy and shine through.
This portion of the path, it height of the bamboo reminds me of a grand cathedral of Europe.

This image was taken from a North Eastern cross view of the crater during sunrise, the colours are deep and rich in the rock sand and new plant growth.
Kamoali’i (The chiefly stones) Pu’u o Pele (Hill of Pele) and Ka Lu’u o ka ‘O’o (Plunge of the digging stick) cinder cones are visible below.
Haleakala is one of my favourite places in the world, it has many special qualities about it, and it never disappoints in any weather or any time of the day. To truly enjoy this part of Hawai’i, one must visit the National park from midnight to midnight as ever-changing lighting conditions reward you with spectacular views.

Looking down on the valley in Maui from the 9000 ft mark on Haleakala.
A rainbow shines over Kahului, Maui. Maui remains an amazing place with many of the worlds climatic zones available on the island within a relatively short distance.
The trade winds and the location in the Pacific give it an amazingly temperate climate where it can rain and be sunny on you at the same time.
