Maui - Iao Valley

Here ars some pics we took while exploring the Iao valley. The valley is a little north of the Kahuli ariport. Four streams meet in the valley and its most unique feature is a 2500 foot high cinder cone - the Iao Needle. At the confluence of the streams, there was a native Hawaiian ceremonial grounds. The valley was beautiful. It was a pleasant relaxing visit. Very peaceful and tranquil. Its a nice way to get away from the more crowded beach areas.
