Hawaiian Biodiversity

This is one of my favorite hikes. In essesence its a 2 hour hike to the crater. An hour of the hikeing is through a fairly disturbed forest (invasive plants mostly), until you get to the first waterfall. Then you hike another hour up three seperate waterfalls that are fairly close together. The last of the three waterfalls you climb straight up it.

In this video you can see at one point the rocks that are covered in Ki leaves. They are scattered around the trail and at the waterfalls. Traditionally Hawaiians left valuables in these Ki leaves. Today you usually see rocks inside.
