Sounds like alot of fun. I've hiked to the top of haleakala and it was
amazing! If I ever go again I'll talk my dad into letting me take my
muni. How did you transport your muni?

If you ever make it to Maui take the trip to the Haleakala Crater on the
way up you pass through the clouds and once you reach the summit at
10,023ft above sea level it feels like the top of the world looking
down at the clouds and into the volcano, technically Mt. Haleakala is
28,000+ feet if you start at its base on the ocean floor.

Sounds like a great vacation! Did you ride up Haleakala, or just down?
That's on my to-do wish list as one of the longest uphill rides on the
planet.

No, only rode down a bit, although I would like to try it on the 29er
with a big apple tire instead of the nobby tire, maybe next year I will
plan a day to myself and attempt the uphill.
I already miss the sunshine and warm weather, dont know if I can wait
til next year

Actually I think it's supposed to be one of the shortest, in terms of
going from sea level to 10,000'. But maybe you mean longest in that
it's almost a constant slope all the way. On the downhill bike ride,
there's only about 400 meters of level/uphill where you have to pedal
the bike.

Sounds like great rides on both islands! Haleakala sounds like it might
be a little scary, as the road is narrow, a unicycle is slow, and most
of the cars passing you are rentals with tourists at the wheel. Not
sure if I would enjoy that except on a fast uni. The trails I rode on
that mountain were up a separate road. Nice MUni, but not much to do
for the rest of the family while you ride, unless they like to hike.

Can you tell us more about the trails you rode near Kaanapali?
