Geocache Description:

Small container. Bring your own pen. Some one else is playing a similar game exactly where this cache is hidden - my geocache is NOT the tin flat one.
Not a very exciting cache so included a little legend about Kihei in the description.
Enjoy!

As with most of Hawaii, Kihei has a fascinating history..
According to legend, two cloud warriors, one from the north and one from the south, battled one another until a truce was called.
When the warriors separated, the piece of blue sky left between them was called Alanui o Lani (Highway to Heaven), and the area beneath that sky is now known as Kihei.
The battle theme seems to have carried over into local history, as Kihei, and the entire South Maui region, was the site of a fierce battle against conqueror Kamehameha in 1790..
Kamehameha burned his soldier's canoes in order to prevent them from retreating, and forced them to march to Wailuku, where they defeated the remaining Maui warriors in a final confrontation in the Iao valley.
