    7:55 The Silver plants are called Silversword. They are exceptionally rare and only grow around the summits of the volcanoes on Maui and Big Island.

    You guys are amazing for not only pushing through that trek, but also sharing it and all its beauty with us along the way. Thank you!

    Having lived on Maui, doing that trail in one day is a speedtrip, and sitting in the silence is a tremendous experience. We camped overnight in the cabins. My favorite thing was to do parts of it more often, with time to hang out see the Neenees and tune into that changing weather.
    Glad you both did it and let us all see it again.

    I seriously got tired just watching it, what a hike! Thanks for going on this one for us, it was very geographically interesting!

    There are many more plants in Haleakalā crater and on the Keonehe'ehe'e trail, including silversword. This trail is never "not worth doing"! Arm in arm, snuggling together under a big umbrella - memorable. Great video, Mahalo 🌺

    Well done guys job well done. It might have been tough for you but much appreciated by thousands of us who might never get to experience that hike..me being one. Awesome effort. Cheers & thanks from Western Australia ❤

    this is so awesome. I live on Oahu, been to Maui many times. Didn't realize that we can hike the crater. definitely next time Im at Haleakala and see people hitchhiking I will stop. I would have never known, awesome video. Thanks for sharing.

    What an incredible hike! The views were cool and it is unlike anything I've seen before. Amazing. I love how both of you keep smiling despite being dog tired! Another fine production Josh.

    I was there decades ago, way more people now. I did not see anyone on the sliding sands trail then. I enjoy how both of you are always positive and thoughtful.

    Absolutely stunning. It looks like you are walking on the moon &/ Mars.
    Mother nature is so beauitiful & can thrive (plant life) anywhere
    My husband & I really appreciate the episodes that encompass family members. Sadly in these days we don't see much family orirented channels.
    Safe travels Josh & kind regards from Adelaide, South Australia.

    Incredible. I live on the Big Island of Hawaii and in all my life, have never seen a superb, or any video basically featuring Haleakala. Excellent 👍 What an experience for you Josh and your wife Amy. Aloha

    My boyfriend and I actually did this hike a couple years ago! We did choose the option to hike down into the crater, and had otherworldly views going down. We went pretty far out, all the way to the end of Lauulu Trail, and it ended up being over 18 miles total. Very long day and we ran out of water at the end.. this option seems much more enjoyable. Loved your video!

  • @prowrestlingisart6742
    @prowrestlingisart6742 Год назад +2

    Great video with epic sights. Such drastic changes in topography too. Enjoyed seeing you and Amy hiking together.
    The plant is called the silversword and only grows in Hawaii. One of the colleges is called the Silverswords!

    Wow....amazing thank you for this experience!. I went to top of Haleakala, walked to different areas, saw the Crater and other amazing views, than drove down. Not sure I'll do the 12 mile sliding sand trail with my bad knees.

    What a treat to see Josh and Amy on a serious hike. Even though it was tough, I’m sure you enjoyed it. Thanks for posting about it cuz I don’t think my knees could do it. But one day I want to go to Maui so I will at least try to give a hitchhiker a lift while I’m there.

    • @ThroughMyLens

    Great timing on this Josh. My wife and I are booked for Hawaii in May and this is our #1 planned activity. I was planning on getting 2 cars (because...you know....hitchhiking? thats totally not us) but now I'm thinking its safe to do that

    • @ThroughMyLens
      @ThroughMyLens  Год назад +3

      Yea, I have never hitchhiked before but we figured we would give it a try. It worked well for us and the other couple we saw on the trail but I had no idea how it would go when I went into it haha

    • @PatrickRU1992

    I’ve seen the sunrise and quite frankly it’s not worth getting up at 3am to drive up there in the dark just to freeze 🥶. The second time we were in Maui we went up to the crater around 10am and really enjoyed hiking part of the trail

    • @ThroughMyLens

    just visit it in last july , the best trip ever !
    QUESTION: @ 1:10 , the little restaurant you went for breakfast ,
    do you remember the name of it ?
    i went there to before going up Haleakalā and can remember, the owners was so nice !
    btw, i made the trail in revers and back from the parking lot as you did to get to the camp , soooo hard ! ;)

    @lienepowell8308 Год назад +1

    I’m so jealous! We were there in May and did only the first 1.5 miles of the trail before turning back as we were hiking with our 5 and 6 year old boys. The altitude was just too much for them (and my husband). Thank you for letting me see the parts we missed! Did altitude not affect you at all?

    Except for those couple of areas where the trail has deliberately and obviously been cleared of rocks, all the rocks and loose stones make this trail an invitation for getting a sprained or twisted ankle. Happy that both of you came away unscathed.
