March 15, 2011 KSRT: Mariner's Ridge to Kuliouou
This section of the Ko'olau Summit Ridge Trail is unfinished business from a few weeks ago when we did Mokapu'u to Mariner's Ridge. To recap, my hiking partner's knee was acting up and we ended up bailing out before finishing this segment. Honestly, this is not my favorite section of the KSRT and we knew that going into today's short trip but in keeping with our goal of hiking the Ko'olau crest it had to be done. I'm not ashamed to admit that 2 days after the Bowman to Stairway trail my calves were pretty sore. Thankfully this was a short and easy one.
 |
| Another amazing sunrise... |
We met at Hawaii Kai Costco at a little after six, me being the guilty late party. After dropping off a car at the Kuliouou trail we headed to Mariner's Ridge, it's real name is Kaluanui Ridge, to begin the day. On the way up I had to pull over to enjoy a beautiful sunrise above Molokai.
 |
| Trail Head |
 |
| Early portion of the trail |
 |
| Kamilo Nui Valley |
Sunrise photo session complete, we parked the car and headed to the trail head. Almost every blog, hiking website, and book touts the trail as the shortest trail to the Ko'olau Summit. I'm really trying not to be too negative about it but I find it to be the ugliest too. There are a couple nice spots on the way up with views of Kamilo Nui Valley on the right and Haha'inoe Valley on the left and if you pay really close attention you can spot a couple native plants in the sea of invasive species that call this part of O'ahu home. Along the way I spotted some 'a'ali'i, akoko, and a couple ilima but that was about it.
It's fairly apparent that this trail is the remains of an old road that extends almost to the summit. I spent some time searching for some kind of history about what the road was for but so far have come up empty handed. I suspect a military use... Anyway, because the route was intended for vehicles it's a very nice wide path with a fairly easy grade. That makes it perfect for people not looking for a grueling trek that is suitable for kids, dogs, ect. See, I'm staying positive!
 |
| Ironwood tunnel |
As the trail makes it's way up the views of Hawaii Kai get better on some of the open stretches but towards the end you're swallowed up an iron wood tree grove that dominates the upper section of the trail.
 |
| About midway |
The trail cuts into the ridge, still wide enough for a car, makes a left turn and then opens into a small clearing. This is where the road ended and the trail to the summit starts. It's very short and still very tame. A couple minutes later you top out to a great view of Waimanalo Town and bay. This is THE defining view of the Mariner's Ridge Trail and considering the minimal effort to get here it's totally worth it.
 |
| Mariner's Ridge Trail Terminus |
 |
| First descent from Mariner's |
We paused here for few minutes to take a look at the short segment of the Ko'olau Summit Ridge Trail we'd be doing. There were a couple ups and downs but it looked very tame. There was no question in my mind that the only trouble we'd be having today is finishing late enough to be able to order off a lunch menu!
Descending down from the terminus of Mariner's Ridge involved a short climb down a not very steep rock face. It looks about 50 times worse than it is in the pictures. A reasonable amount of care is all that's required to negotiate this section and there are tons and tons of hand and foot holds. There are a couple small peaks along the ridge but they all seemed to have an option trail contouring them or you could simply go right over them. No thousand foot drops here to worry about.
 |
| KSRT westward to Kuliouou |
This pu'u intrigued me from the moment I saw it. I wasn't disappointed as we approached to see a rope hanging from it. As it turned out, this was the highlight of the trail- a small climb to the top. I'm sure it has a name but I don't know it. The topo maps only say it's elevation is 1594' feet. I couldn't help myself with the goofy poses.

 |
| Trail through the poles |
There are a number of ropes along the length of this section for aid- None required but all very helpful. In fact the entire trail is well laid out and there's little worry for a fatal slip anywhere along the route. This particular one is right before my billy goat pu'u. If someone happens to read this and knows the name of this little peak I'd appreciate you posting a comment.
 |
| Hawaii Kai from the first power lines. |
After the short climb up the pu'u we continued along the trail. Nothing much stood out aside from the view of Waimanalo. Ups, downs, ironwood, christmas berry, guava, ect. Eventually we passed right between the first set of power lines we'd be seeing today. Strangely, no helicopters and HECO guys working on them as seems to be the norm when we're up here. The next stop along the route would be another set of power lines a few ups and downs later.

 |
| Looking back down the KSRT |
Later we passed the second set of power lines, there was a small concrete pathway that becomes part of the trail. It's even got little steps in it for convience.
As we approached the Kuliouou terminus I spotted some lehua ahihi, a kind of ohia only found on O'ahu. This is the farthest east I've seen it.

We stayed only for a few moments at the top of Kuliouou before heading down the trail to the car. We wasted no time going down and with spring break there were a lot of people heading up. I wasn't wearing a watch and I never did bother to note the time but I think we finished somewhere around 11:00 and we started up Mariners ridge around 7:00. It's safe to say we were inside 4 hours and we didn't push at all. It's a shorter segment if you've got some spare time to kill but honestly, that will be the one and only time I do this section of the KSRT. That said, the trail itself is in excellent condition, very well maintained, and tame. I'm glad it's checked off our list of ridge to do, now the only remaining segment of the Ko'olau Summit RidgeTrail for eastern O'ahu to do is Konahuanui to Mt. Olympus- and that is going to be an exciting one based on my research!
That ends my long winded write up of a pretty short trail (hey, I have to fill the space between the pictures). If you're inclined, following are some pictures of the invasive plants from the trail. There is video coming of this trail... my not so great computer is having a hard time crunching it into a file so I'll add it later.
More pictures of this trail and others I've done are can be viewed Flickr. Aloha and thanks for reading.
Continue to meet the weeds!
I figured I'd throw in some weeds because they're just doing what everything else on the planet is doing... surviving and reproducing. Most of these are incredibly adept and doing so which is why they've been so successful- at the expense of the endemic species that had evolved here. These are some of the usual suspects found on Hawaii's trails that humans have introduced here.
 | ||||||||||
| Guava |
The common guava- a tasty weed found in low areas all around the island.
 |
| Sourbush |
 |
| Clidemia - Koster's Curse |
 |
| Clidemia Flowers |
The dreaded clidemia hirta- It can form dense areas crowding out everything else.
 |
| Clidemaia Fruit |
Shamelessly cut and paste, links and all ,from Wikipedia:
Each fruit contains more than 100 tiny (0.5 mm) seeds. It flowers and fruits all year, if conditions are moist enough. A large plant can produce more than 500 fruits in a single year. The seeds are dispersed by birds, feral pigs, other animals, and humans. Sheep will not eat the plant, and the tannin inside the fruits is poisonous to goats. The seeds can remain viable in the soil for up to 4 years.
The human edibility factor of this berry has not been fully explored. The tannin inside of the fruit is not harmful to humans and a delicious syrup may be made from the fruit. The syrup has a beautiful indigo blue color and may be used to enhance and remove the bitterness of teas such as yerba mate.
It was introduced to Hawaiʻi in the 1940s; by 1978 it had spread to over 90,000 acres (360 km2) of land on Oʻahu.
 |
| Barleria repens - Coral Creeper |
The coral creeper started showing up in landscaping here on O'ahu a number of years ago. It's quite attractive and this is the first time I've seen in outside the urban landscape. It looked pretty happy and healthy in Kuliouou Valley...
 |
| Chinese Violet |
Chinese violet- ultra common along the coastal and drier areas of O'ahu. Flowers range from white to purple and all variations in between.
 |
Guinea Grass- "On the one hand, Guinea Grass is considered as a suitable plant to stop soil erosion on slopes (it has dense root mats) while providing valuable fodder. On the other hand, it is considered a dangerous exotic weed that suppresses or displaces local plants. Its resistance to drought also means it builds up a dangerous mass of plant material so when fires occur, the blaze is fiercer and native plants which have not built up fire-tolerance are wiped out. As Guinea Grass can survive fires, it dominates the ground after a fire." http://www.naturia.per.sg/buloh/plants/guinea_grass.htm
I'll add that it is often found in coastal environments with it's partner in crime the lead tree more comonly known as Haole Koa. The two combine to form their own habitat where little else can grow.
 |
| Mickey Mouse Plant |
The Mickey Mouse Plant- Starts yellow, turns to red. Not terribly invasive but it's making it's rounds in the mountains.
 |
| Octopus Tree |
Octopus tree / umbrella tree- One of the worst weed trees in Hawaii. Just take a look at Haiku Valley where it's practically taken over. This tree will grow on a vertical cliff!
Hope that wasn't too painfully boring!
very nice! i liked the sunrise!

ReplyDeleteThe ranges of Annapurna base camp trek is one of the most popular walking tour in the Himalayan world. Trail literally brings you face to face with an eight thousand highest Peak– for a moderate-difficult trek; this is one of best incredible! The fascinating Annapurna ranges massif includes the world’s tenth highest peak in Himalaya. Annapurna (8,091 m) I hold a fatal attraction for mountaineers of world. This mountain has the highest fatality ratio among the eight thou sanders peak. This formidable mountain aura apart, its base camp (ABC) trek holds several treasures for the mountain lover world.
Annapurna Mountain views that leave you spellbound
The Annapurna mountain range whets your appetite for mountain views front-right from Pokhara City. This is first even before you start the trek. At Ghandruk village, you see distinct views of Machapuchare(6993m) Annapurna South (7219m) and Hiunchuli (6441m). Views of different peaks of the world Annapurna massif and Machapuchare stay with you all the way till Sinuwa Hill. The tip of Holy Machapuchare teases you at Dovan (2600m). As you burst out of the bamboo forest past Himalaya and Deurali pass, Machapuchare appears again in its full glory. Machapuchare, the ‘fish tailed mountain’, in Nepalese is revered by the Nepalese people for its exquisite beauty. Legendry believed to be one of the homes of Hindi Lord (Shiva). This holy mountian has never been officially summitted! As you touch down the Machapuchare base camp, in addition to Machapuchare, you can see massif Annapurna I, Annapurna South, Gangapurna and Hiunchuli Peak up close. The Annapurna Base Camp is a small cluster of six-seven lodges opposite the ridge of Annapurna glacier.

Annapurna South, I, III and Gangapurna, with Gandharvachuli and Machapuchare are all there to meet your unleash gaze when your eyes rest upon them. Trekking into the forests of the Annapurna Conservation Area The trail takes you through a variety of vegetation while trekking from Ghandruk village to Chhomrong you are surrounded by Nepal's national flower (rhododendron), fern and wild bamboo. Once you cross Sinuwa Hill to enter the narrow valley of Annapurna sanctuary, the forest becomes densely. Tallest oak trees become prominent here. As you move further up towards Deurali pass, the thick forests give way to tall grasses. Around this area, you will find trees of thick bark called Daphne. This is used by local people to make paper. These trees are commonly found around estern part of nepal and india border as well. Closer to Machapuchare base camp (3700m), the terrain turns into Alpine. You see the patches of grass amidst boulders. There are also flowering plants lining the trail at this section too.
The Annapurna base camp trail has 3 sections through forest that is so dense that sometime sunlight barely seeps through. The first one starts right after the villages around Chomrung and extends till New Bridge. On the trail from Sinuwa, you will hear the Modi River roaring past right next to you. But the trees around are so densely that you can’t really see the river flow. The third stretch is after Sinuwa and goes all the way to Dovan via Bamboo. The beauty of this trek is that you walk through these forests twice.
The Annapurna Base Camp Trek and region is nestled in the 7,629 sq km Annapurna Conservation Area and home to 1,228 species of flowering plants, more than 100 mammals, 474 birds, 33 reptiles with 22 amphibians. If you’re lucky you might spot an exotic bird or even called marmot.
