Do you have the power of endurance, the ability to withstand fatigue when hiking this rugged ungraded ridge trail challenged by the landmark Big Dip, a maze of uluhe and mud 2/3 of the way up to the Ko’olaus? Hike on!

Located in the back of Manoa Valley, these towering double peaks are the highest in the Ko’olau range. The climb up is steep and slippery (use caution).  Despite your exertions, you may not be rewarded with a view, since the summits are often shrouded in clouds.
