"This loop is not for the weak ones haha. 70% is bushwhacking, some new landslides washed away some parts of the trails, got lost only one time surprisingly. The weather was perfect so that helped the rough day to go smoother. Was another great adventure but One and done!" — nandorszotak • Feb 6, 2021

"I shouldn't have descended from Pu'u Kuolani to the direction to PULAMA RD. Ended up huge private property that seems to be inevitable. (Senator Fong's Plantation and Gardens)" — tkash123 • Dec 15, 2020

"1st ascent (documented) on what we called Manana Corner Windward ridge. A gnarly,, narrow,, crumbly,, sketchy ridge which is not for the faint hearted. I will never climb that again!
After we topped out on the Koolau Summit Trail, on the way back down, we climbed over this tall mountain, Peak 2820. It is a big beautiful mountain in the true Hawaiian wilderness, just about 20 minutes from the Manana terminus." — nandorszotak • Dec 6, 2020

"I had my eye on these 3 smaller peaks for a while. To access this ridge, I found this side ridge with a surprisingly good trail (possibly cleared by local hunters )up to the 1st peak Pu'ukiolea. from there another 0.4 miles on a faint trail and arrived to Pu'ukauai, which has 2 geodetic markers on the top, and a concrete slab with a metal pole in it. To get to the 3rd peak Pu'ukolani, I had to go back and cross on a somewhat followable trail through a Cook pine forest. This peak doesn't have any interesting features.
Not a very scenic route, but if you want to snag those peaks, you might like it." — nandorszotak • Oct 17, 2020
