You get great views of Honolulu and Waikiki.
And a lovely couple.
A relative sampling of Hawaiian tourists.
The excitement for this trip was after we had hiked back down the trail. While we were eating our Hawaiian Ice (far and away the worst we had the whole trip) a whole bunch of emergency vehicles came into the parking lot. After they milled around (the people who came in the vehicles, that is, not the vehicles themselves) for a while, a rescue helicopter landed.
Some Search and Rescue guys hopped in, the helicopter went to the top of the trail, and then came down trailing a basket.
There was an old Japanese lady who they helped out of the basket. She was able to walk, so obviously she wasn't too hurt, so that's a good thing. It provided entertainment, though.
