Saddle Road (Mauna Kea Visitor Center)
Big Island of Hawai'i
Along Hwy 200, a/k/a Saddle Road.
Scenes from a detour up the Mauna Kea Road, around the grounds surrounding the Visitor Information Center.
This was as far as we could get without a 4WD vehicle. But yes, we were above the clouds (at around 9,200 feet).

Saddle Road (detour up Mauna Kea Road)
Big Island of Hawai'i
Along Hwy 200, a/k/a Saddle Road.
Scenes from a moving rental car, traveling up (or down, depending on your direction) the Mauna Kea Road to (or from) the Visitor Center.
Next to last is looking back up the beginning of the road (as it disappears into the clouds).
The last one is back down on the Saddle Road, looking over the lava fields toward Mauna Loa.

Saddle Road (near Mauna Kea State Park)
Big Island of Hawai'i
Along Hwy 200, a/k/a Saddle Road.
Scenes from a quick stop in part of what I think is Mauna Kea State Park. Flowers, plants, trees, and what's probably weeds.

Saddle Road (west)
Big Island of Hawai'i
Along Hwy 200, a/k/a Saddle Road.
Scenes from the area in the northwest part of the highway, near Parker Ranch. Shots from a moving rental car.
Slopes of Mauna Kea and clouds.
One of the many one-lane bridges in the western portion of the Saddle Road. I think that's Mauna Loa in the distance.
Shadow of a cloud on a cinder cone, with power lines in the foreground.
Tall grass along the side of the road.
Ubiquitous including-the-side-view-mirror shot.
Yep, sheep.
Morning sun between trees coming through the sunroof.
