Description
I'm looking downwards from the 9,000 ft elevation level of Mauna Kea and into an old crater below. Farther across is the lower part of Mauna Loa, a still active volcano. The upper section of Mauna Loa is cover with clouds. The air is a little thin where I'm at. As you go further up in elevation, you need to adjust your movements and breathing. Feeling a little wooooozy here as I had moved a little to fast climbing up the hill I'm standing on. Aloha and thank you for viewing.

Wow, very beautiful shot of this crater!!! I know what you mean about thin air, it made me dizzy too!!!
Cool Errol! I love the Big Island and never made it up Mauna Kea so this is a real treat. Mauna Loa is an awsome site, especially Volcanoes Natl. Park and the Caldera.
Very beautiful and special.:O)) and worth the effort you put in capturing it.:O)
this is almost the same scene i took from an overlook at the equator in Kenya. this is a fine shot.

Huff, Puff...worth the climb to see this wonderous site....great capture Sharky!
Fantastic view... This one also looks like MARS... but I didn't know trees were growing there ! ;-)
Vegetation will decrease as you go up in elevation. At about the 12,000 ft level, you will see none. Aloha
