HI Geocachers: Ohia Island(Kipuka Ainahou) Traditional Cache

This cache is temporarily unavailable.

Greatland Reviewer: Dear Cache Owner:

I have been going through caches that have multiple "DNF" (did not find) logs, which is often a sign that a cache is missing. Generally cachers avoid hunting a cache with many DNF logs, so it is a good idea for the Cache Owner to check the cache and either replace it or post a log to the cache page to tell fellow geocachers that the cache is still there, but they might need new eyeglasses. No action by the Cache Owner may result in a cache being archived to keep the cache from appearing in local Pocket Queries.

Please reenable the cache page after you have maintained your cache. To reenable the cache, go to the cache from your Account page on GC.com. Under "Admin Tools" in the upper right-hand corner, click "Enable," write your note and click "Submit log entry."

Regards,

Geocache Description:

Take a walk to a kipuka, and to an island of life....

An interesting nature hike through a variety of mostly native vegetation, Pu`u O`o Trail offers birders the opportunity to see I`iwi, `Apapane, `Amakihi, Elapio, `O`mao, `Io, Akiapola`au and Nene. It was pioneered by early cattle ranchers to drive their stock to embarkation points on the coast. Rain, fog and cool temperatures are common.

This cache is located just outside the first kipuka on the Pu'u O'o trail. You will be looking for a little 'island' in a sea of grass and lava..

This is a pristine area, so don't litter. Please replace the cache exactly as you found it. PLEASE NO SPOILERS ,so everybody can enjoy the experience of discovery...aloha and happy hunting.

Much mahalos to Wholagal...FTF! I hope you enjoyed the hike as much as I did.
