Kauai: Waimea Canyon

The so-called "Grand Canyon of the Pacific," Waimea Canyon cuts along the western portion of Kaua'i. Being the wettest spot on earth, it also gets a lot of clouds.

Winding road leading up the mountain.

Starting at the top, this is the Kalalau Valley from Pu'u o Kila lookout.

Minutes later, the clouds roll in.

Turning around, here's the canyon. (Really, it's behind those clouds.)

Down to the Pu'u Himahina lookout, it's a little better.

Farther down, Waimea Canyon lookout is clear.







One of the ubiquitous Kaua'i chickens wanders by the parking lot.
