One Year Anniversary of Maui's Pi'ilani Highway Reopening

Since the big earthquakes in the northwest of the Big Island of Hawaii back in October 2006, there were many closures as a result. But among the casualties for waterfalling fans were:

• Kapaloa Falls near Pololu Valley on the Big Island
• Pi'ilani Highway in Maui with access to Kukui'ula Falls and Alelele Falls

Fortunately, it has been a year since the re-opening of Pi'ilani Highway in southeast Maui (read the news article); thus ending a two-year closure. So we're taking this anniversary to remind adventurers considering the drive completely around East Maui that you're in for a very different side of the island if you take on this excursion! We certainly plan to do it on our return!
