The Waihee (sounds like why-hey-a) Ridge Trail begins near the northwest coast of Maui, just outside of Wailuku. The views, (as seen in these two photos), of Haleakala on east Maui as well as of the valley and Kahului Harbor were wonderful.
We were lucky to have a pretty clear morning for our hike although a little bit hazy.
We also had some great views of the lush, green West Maui Mountains and Waihee Valley.
The trail followed the ridgeline closely, and we gained about 1500 feet in elevation in about 2.25 miles!
Lots of beautiful Flora!
Up, up, up!
Then, back down. . .
A little giant-fern forest was a nice place to rest on the way back down.
