Mauka To Makai

Mauka to Makai is a Hawaiian saying that represents the breadth of ecosystems between the Mauka (mountain) to the Makai (sea). Here you can dive into the Pacific ocean and climb above the clouds to the 13,796 foot summit of Mauna Kea in less than 2 hours. The pressure in my ears hasn't returned to normal but we did go Makai to Mauka.
