I guess wading in the Seven Sacred Pools is out of the question now.

The helicopter tour of the Haleakala crater rim was spectacular back in the 70’s. Early morning low flight up the south side of the slope into the clouds and the a swift nose down with the full majesty of the crater suddenly visible. Oh, and the circular rainbows cast from the rotor. Beats the best roller coaster ride by miles.

I drove the entire length of that wretched road intending to dangle my feet in the Seven Sacred Pools. Alas the demigod musta just flushed his commode as I arrived - they were overflowing with roaring brown water - anyone getting too close risked being swept out into the ocean which, according to the sign posted beyond the last pool, was shark infested.

No more Hana hwy for me.
