Rocks, with a Monty for scale
Red flowers (no, I don't know what kind)

Today Monty and I hiked Olomana Trail (Kailua, Hawaii) to the first peak. It featured the steepest and scariest rock scrambling I've ever done, high up, and enormous amounts of thick slippery mud, low down. The rest of our party (Nathan, Noah, Nadia) went on to peaks two and three, and possibly have better pictures, but for now I bring you a picture of a random rock pile, and a picture of some red flowers that I may manage to look up. We saw a bird that I later identified as a red-billed leiothrix, on the way down.
