Maui: Taking on the Crater

Tomorrow (Tuesday) morning, we are waking up nice and early and attacking (OK, hiking) the crater at Haleakala Volcano. It's been inactive for decades, so I don't have to worry about going Joe Banks on anyone. Looking forward to it. We hiked about 2 miles of it last year on the honeymoon, but now we're aiming for one of the historical markers about 5 miles in. Sure, 5 miles doesn't sound like much, but the crater is more than a mile above sea level, so it's not going to be an easy trek. Especially hauling all my camera gear to document the excursion. Happy trails!
