| MAKIKI VALLEY HIKE | |
 |
 |
| One day we hiked the hills of Makiki Valley Nature Preserve... | |
 |
 |
| ...where the footing is muddy and treacherous | |
 |
 |
| The trail climbs about 1,000 feet on a ridge overlooking a thick jungle | |
 |
 |
| We hiked both trails, making a 4-mile loop through incredible flora and fauna | |
 |
 |
| We expected to see Tarzan swinging through the banyon trees | |
 |
 |
| The banyon roots making a lattice pattern | This is how the banyon roots eventually grow into the ground |
 |
 |
| A tangle of branches | Walking through Hawaiian kudzu |
 |
 |
| Views of Diamond Head and Waikiki highrises from the top of the mountain | |
 |
 |
| Two more beautiful wildflowers. Note the earwigs on the flower on the right. | |
 |
 |
| A place to wash off the mud at trail's end | A volunteer shows us stuffed indigenous birds |
