Aloha, I’m very proud of this photo as it wasn’t an easy thing to catch, had to hike to the top of the crater and get up very early in the morning to reach the top I’m time. Was very cold too! 🌋😊

Here’s a description I pulled from good old Wiki:

Haleakalā, or the East Maui Volcano, is a massive shield volcano that forms more than 75% of the Hawaiian Island of Maui. The western 25% of the island is formed by another volcano, Mauna Kahalawai, also referred to as the West Maui Mountains.
Description Credit: Wikipedia
Elevation: 10,023′
Last eruption: between 1480 and 1600
Did you know: The larger volcano, Haleakalā may have risen as high as 12,000 feet (3,658 m) above sea level (30,000 feet or 9,144 m from the ocean floor) over a period of 500,000 years

of course later on that day my resting spot was right near the beach 🏖 as it should be. 😊👍
