This was taken on an "easy" hike in Kauai - I think what was meant by "easy" is that it's relatively "easy" to stay on the trail, and in case you take a wrong step, there are plenty of trees to run into before tumbling hundreds of feet off steep cliffs into the ocean. However, we were rewarded with THE most incredible views I've ever experienced on a hike. It was at times steamy-muggy, very muddy and rocky, but no bugs!! Hawaii is great like that. Sand fleas are the only annoyance, and with all the tradewinds, that's hardly an issue. I would have loved to stay on this island for many more days & done some camping. Next time...
