Olomana
Matterhorn
The odd-shaped mountain that is Olomana is a remnant
of lava that pooled within the Ko'olau caldera millions of years
ago. The word Olomana translates to English as “forked hill.” In
Hawaiian legends, Olomana was a fearsome evil warrior who stood 12
yards high.
Olomana has three distinct peaks: Ahiki, Paku'i and
Olomana
While it is commonly accepted that the first and
highest peak is named Olomana, there is some debate about which
peak is Paku'i and which peak is Ahiki; many people refer to them
today as Peaks 1, 2 and 3.
