"Highest Point in Oahu! Was definitely a gentle giant, but man I got killed this hike! Super tiring. Unfortunately the peak was clouded and we were going down, clouds left, so sad no view up on the summit. Still a good hike!" — timothyevans • Jan 13, 2025

"Grand Views! Went Up Kuliouou West then KST crossover to Pu'u O Kona and then KST to down Kuliouou. Somebody cleared the overgrowth of the West Ridge and added a new rope on the sketch portion of the KST. So happy to have done this one!" — timothyevans • Nov 26, 2024

"On my trip to Kauai, I heard this was a popular one. I did the West Trail and it was fun. Did it with my Dad, nice to go out hiking with family and a change in scenery from Oahu. " — timothyevans • Sep 15, 2024

"4/8/24: Sam and I started from Halona Beach and took the path along the Koko Arch lower ridge after crossing the road at the bridge. The scaling of Koko Arch was pretty straightforward (C3 slab) but would be pretty sketchy coming down when wet. Sam decided to turn back and pick me up at Koko Head Park. The best stretch other than the crater ridge section was the ancient steps to the ridge. The railway tracks on the descent really sucked and my knees hate me. (2/920/1310)" — LoneWolf • Apr 8, 2024

"I climbed this hike at 6 PM. I went through a small silversword preserve and saw 2 silverswords. Then I visited the visitor center. After that I made the climb to the summit. The summit had epic views!" — lc444 • Aug 4, 2023
