Enjoying the drive on Maui.

narrow winding road on MauiYesterday my dad and I drove out to the little Kaukini Gallery and gift shop in Kahakuloa Maui.  The drive is beautiful and you'll see some incredible scenery along the north shore of West Maui.  The road hugs the cliffs in a lot of places, and sometimes it's only one lane, with a sheer drop off right next to the car, and no guardrails!  The nice part is, you're driving slow enough to enjoy the scenery (if you dare take your eyes off the road!). 

There are some wide spots to pull over and take pictures or just drink it all in.  Not many people use this road, mostly just local traffic and some tourists who want to get off the beaten path.  It's well worth it, just to get to the gallery.

I got some nice pictures and will post more later, but for now, this will have to do.

Aloha and have a great weekend - the last one before Christmas!

Georgina, the winding roads on the island with the steep slopes remind me of my visit to Maui a number of years ago. Love the place.

Hi Georgina.  Having recently made the trip myself, it was extra fun to see your shots.  What's the name of the double-hump?

Thanks for the comments!  The two humps are locally referred to as "the elephant".

Georgina,

Absolutely beautiful scenery; after it being -2 below with a wind chill of -27 below last week in Wisconsin I could really get used to Hawaii right about now.

I vividly remember this road. I drove it in the pouring rain last March and was in fear for my life!

Aloha,
