Wailau (Molokai) by Mark Short
Thursday morning I squeezed into the tiny plane (Paragon Air) that would take me to Molokai. I was reminded how great it is to fly small and low. Even on an overcast & rainy day I could see so much more and the convenience was great, no lines, just get on the plane & go.Met Thomas Yoza & Gene Robinson at the airport, dropped off our signed waiver at the big white house on the hill. We thanked Mrs. Petra for giving permission and she wished us luck. Tom Yoza -- Photo by Nathan Yuen Back at the trail head Thomas took pictures of the sign "Warning, Hazardous Trail, 12 Hours Minimum. At Your Own Risk." etc. After hiking the trail I wanted to go back and add I sign that pointed to this sign saying "It's True!" In my experience most trails are not as difficult as people say. This trail lives up to its reputation. Like the ocean, it must be respected & feared. Do not turn your back on this trail. Do not underestimate its power. O.K. enoug
