Waimea Trickle

One of our favorite haunts on Oahu is the trail to Waimea Falls through the lush Waimea Valley. The falls are typically thunderous, spilling into a pool at the end of the 3/4 mile walk, and no matter how hot the day, worth the trek. Things were very dry this year all the way at the beginning, the lowest point of the trail. Our hopes, slim as they were, dimmed as we went higher and higher, drier and drier. Sure enough, there was hardly a drip coming down off the rock face, so we renamed the falls "The Trickle." But was it worth it? You bet!

Here is the entrance to the park.

Almost there... And the grand finale! Ta da....
