Here we are on a tropical island surrounded with bikinis, beaches, and mai tais but this morning we find ourselves searching for any piece of warm clothing we can find. We are going to the top of Haleakala Volcano to watch the sunrise.
Being the shortest day of the year we were able to sleep in longer than I was used to. A leisurely 4:15 wakeup time and a cup of coffee got us going. We found ourselves a nice parking lot at the summit and then braced ourselves for the very untropical conditions we expected outside. Somehow no matter how much I bring I still feel unprepared.
We tried our best in these pictures to look warm and fuzzy in our winter getups but it was a job with the 50mph wind and frozen over puddles on the ground. Our group of intrepid adventurers stayed tough and witnessed an incredible sunrise over Haleakala crater.
