Description
I'm back up on Mauna Kea again via 4X4 wheel drive. I had brought my co-worker and hiker friend Terry up on this trip. Same Terry as from my earlier post "Brave Terry and Lava" . After 7 years in Hawaii, this is Terry's first trip up on this mountain. The elevation here is approx 13,700 ft above sea level. Aloha and thank you for viewing.

Ahhhhh. Maika'i! Such a kewl compo and colors in this one Sharky! Excellent work here! Sigh I missed out again...Aloha! V
I gotta be honest and say that you kinda popped my bubble, LOL. I always pictured Hawaii to be the greenest place on earth, but your photos bring me back to reality i guess. Im aware that youre on high altitude though and there shouldnt be much vegetation there. Have a great weekend my friend #:O)
Zacko...Would like to try growing a coconut tree up there but I don't think the rangers would approve of that, lol......
WOW! Up there is vulcano!!! What a "trip"! For me is better down here...to old for that sport! But I like to see it on photos! Excellent shot!*****!
Wow that does look high up! Excellent shot!
impressive volcanic landscape without vegetation,excellent shot
Ya way above.....lools like a moonscape. Awesome!!!! ;o)

Wow thats quite an impressive mountain !!! Really cool shot here, superb !! :o)
damn dude... you're on top of the world here, i'd have a nose bleed for sure or pass out from the height..heh heh!!! awesome view!!! thank you for sharing!!!
Geez, you are High up there! The thin air must have got to Terry a bit. :) What a view. Don't worry Zacko, most of what you'd see of Hawaii is green and lush. Sharky here is taking us into the "forbidden zone".... ;]
Hey! You! Get off of My Cloud! Hey! Aloha! Hey!!!
its just like another planet..love the cloud formation and the little red hill.. colours and textures :)... excellent
back to Mars!! yeah, that's where I want to be! :]
Bleak but magnificent landscape - love the clouds in the background too!
very impressive with the stark contrast of the terrain and the clouds!
Time to put on an oxygen-mask LOL! Incredible to reach these elevations simply by car! Fantastic view on this barren landscape!
It looks very similar to Haleakala's landscape, not much grows up there!!!! Do you drive up and then 4 wheel? or go all the way on 4 wheels??? excellent reminder of the power of Mauna Kea!!!
Akemi...Most of the time, I'll use 4 wheel drive at about the 7000 ft level and up. Some people will drive all the way to the top with their 2 wheel vehicle but its not recommended especially when it snows. Aloha
So beautiful !
a fascinating and impressive landscape. great mood and atmosphere. an excellent capture. !!!!!!!! #:O) !!!!!!!!!
yipeeee, you are back here! very impressive and stunning view! looks like a moon landscape! ;o)
A stunner, Errol! Excellently captured and composed! Aloha
