We went for a hike in the Ahupuaʻa ʻO Kahana State Park and saw a few World War 2 era bunkers that were used for training when the whole valley was used as a jungle warfare training center.
The place definitely gives off a lot of Jurassic Park vibes which makes sense considering large portions of the film were shot in the next valley over.
We walked all the way out to the tip of Kaʻena Point to see the sea birds and look for monk seals. This is a hot hike and we were thirsty by the time we got back to the car. It was cool seeing the remnants of the old Oahu Railway and Land Company.
Before my first full day of work on Oahu, I went with my coworker Heather to run up the Kuliouou Ridge Trail for some views over the islands. It’s quite the climb up the hill but worth it for the view.
