Maunawili Falls


Last Saturday Wolfgang, Janelle and I went with my ward to Maunawili Falls. It's a hike that we've been wanting to do for some time now, and so it was perfect timing that my ward planned to go. The hike was great, not too easy and not too strenuous, so it was a nice little work out while enjoying the scenery. It was definitely a nice change compared to the last hike we did ages ago, which was Laie Falls, which is HIGHLY OVERRATED. Anyone who reads this in Laie that has not done that hike yet- don't waste your time!

Anyway...

We drove to the hike with a member of the bishopric, Brother Cannon, who also use to be my chemistry teacher. We all agreed that it was great time because we got to see the fun side of him that we've been waiting to see. He even was the first out of our group to jump off the high rocks into the pool of water! ( Even I myself jumped off, I was so proud! Although it was the smallest ledge...) Also, not to mention, on our way back from the trip, he generously bought us all food at Jack in the Box, he DEFINTELY won us over that day :) I would say that we were inspired to hop into his car...

Here are some pictures of our trip! Although sometimes the pictures don't do it justice.

The water was a bit cold...

Sounds like you guys had a lot of fun! I haven't hiked Laie Falls yet. You're not the only one who gave it a bad rating, so I'm not planning to ever hike there.
