2017 in Review

2017 in Review

Hiking to Pu’u Hina on the Pupu Kea Trail • October 15, 2017 • Written by Curtis We were on a roll in terms of hiking these first couple of weeks, doing a hike almost every weekend.  What’s more, we had done a hike Windward, Leeward, Southward, and in the Valley, so it seemed appropriate that we do a hike on the… Read More
