Very cool. One of the most beautiful places I’ve ever been. My Father passed away there after hiking back up from the valley on January 15, 2004. He and my mother were in Hawaii for Farm Bureau annual meeting and went to the Big Island afterwards. He loved how rural It was, of course, being farmers and all. He loved the Big Island. Thankfully, myself and my oldest son have been able to hike it since then. I never thought I would be able to make it over there, we are from Rural North Florida, it’s a long way.. Keep protecting it❤️🤙🏻
Over 20 years ago, I made the long trek down the Pololū trail to the beach. Then the long arduous back up to the parking lot. These days it's crowded and hard to find a parking spot. It's very quiet and spiritual there on the beach. Wading past the stream and the black and white sand under foot.
I’ve been vacationing on the Big Island since 1999. I went down into the valley once and found it to be so peaceful and beautiful. I stayed along the shore and then went back up. I would like to go again. Are there areas I should stay away from out of respect?
It's apparent you don't understand our indigenous brothers and sisters... you don't know their family background, ancestral history or their DNA... you are making assumptions on ignorance...🤦🏼
@@Sentimentalgal05 well, no human beings are indigenous to the Hawaiian Islands. The first humans to arrive in Hawaii were most likely from Marquesas Islands around 800 AD. The next humans were white Europeans in mid to late 1700’s. The people shown in this video are likely a mix of people that didn’t arrive to Hawaii until early 1900’s.
