Hike to the Petroglyphs

We took a detour through one of the resorts to the site of ancient Hawaiian petroglyphs. The .6 mile hike took us through some gnarly trees that created tunnels over the path. Felt like we were in dark woods of a fairytale. It also wound through the lava fields that dominate this part of the island. It’s a stark reminder that the resorts were planned, and they tamed a lava desert to build golf courses And lush gardens. 

Alix has been having fun with time-lapse images. This is the one she did in the woods on the hike.

This is the one of the desert section of the hike.
