We hiked on the Halemau'u Trail. This trail was amazing! I would have loved to have gone farther, but I know my limitations. You can hike down into the crater. We did have a super view looking down into it. We are in the clouds - and the kept coming and going, but luckily, we were able to see the view.

Our next hike was to the Leieiwi Overlook. We had less luck there. All we could see were clouds.
