Big Beautiful Island!

Kohala Ranch Big Island of Hawai'i

Snorkeling at Captain Cook's Monument


Trip to the summit of Mauna Kea elevation 13,796 feet. We made to the top 30 minutes before sunset. It was 37 degrees with 40 mile/hour wind gusts. At that elevation the oxygen level is 60% of that at seas level. It was fantastic. On the way down, we stopped and star gazed for a few hours. A great day!




Awesome!



On top of the world!
