Been there too! In an open helicopter.

Outstanding!

Haleakala on Maui has an extensive optical telescope site at 10,000ft that must have gathered spectacular photos.

Took the early morning helicopter ride in 1977... awesome panorama suddenly opened as we popped up through the clouds and cleared the rim.

Saw two 360° rainbows above and below the helicopter from the rotor wash in the cast off mist just after clearing the main cloud layer.
