LOCATED ON THE 1ST HALF MILE OF THE MAUNAWILI FALLS TRAIL. SLIPPERY ROCKS/MUD SO PLEASE HIKE WITH CAUTION. ALOHA

WHILE IN OAHU SPREADING THE ASHES OF OUR DEPARTED, WE THOUGHT HOW APPROPRIATE IT WOULD BE TO START A CACHE IN HIS HONOR TO KEEP HIS MEMORY ALIVE. AS KIDS WE PLAYED ON THESE TRAILS.
THE HONOLULU ADVERTISER PUBLISHED THIS ARTICLE ON HIM CLICK THIS LINK TO VIEW link here

WHEN YOU DO LOCATE THE CACHE, TAKE THE TIME TO SIT AND READ WHAT IS WRITTEN IN THE CACHE.THE CACHE IS IN A WATERPROOF CONTAINER SO PLEASE TAKE THE TIME TO CLOSE IT PROPERLY.AS IN ANY HAWAIIAN FOREST AREA, PLEASE PACK OUT YOUR TRASH.AND PICK UP ANY YOU FIND ON THE TRAIL.YOU WILL ENCOUNTER ANCIENT HAWAIIAN ROCK WALLS ON THE TRAIL. WE ASK THAT VISITORS DO NOT TOUCH OR TAMPER WITH THESE SACRED AREAS.IT IS BEST TO LOOK BUT "NO TOUCH" IN RESPECT TO OUR ANCESTORS.PLEASE DO NOT REMOVE OR TAKE ANYTHING MORE THAN YOU CAME WITH (EXCEPT GARBAGE AND MEMORIES).IF YOU GET "ONO BLOOD",MOSQUITO REPELLENT IS A GOOD IDEA. MAHALO AND ENJOY!

*FTF Do me a favor and bring a writing device. We didn't have one when we placed the cache. "Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket">

Maunawili falls is a beautiful swimming hole and waterfall. It is 1.3 miles from the begining of the trail marker to the falls, but the cache is at the very start of the main trail.

Cache Logs

November 1 by tolmaus (3228 found) We had the pleasure of spending a few hours with sillygirl & jrr, leeroyboy, and CGOhana for some terrific caching and a great lunch. Thanks to leeroyboy for making the actual discovery on this one as the coords were placing us in a different spot. Thanks for the fun! [view this log]

November 1 by nokaoi (522 found) I guess this one has migrated slightly as my cords were sending me off course, but luckily I was caching with friends who are much smarter than me, and they soon made the grab. TFTH TNLN [view this log]
