Don’t mind me, just enjoying the sun on Mokoli’i island. ☀️🏝 🏖 🚣‍♀️ 😁 . . [p/c @jpan_tab | the shit we do for photos include, renting kayaks, paddling out regardless of the weather, hiking in slippers or barefoot at times, then finding the perfect spot to stand in. Now that’s what you call dedication! 🤣🤣🤣] . . . P.S. I got my color back! (at Mokolii Island) https://www.instagram.com/p/ByPBIeuhnkt/?igshid=1xa8rsvqxmkjp

Olomana, Paku’i & Ahiki, Three Peaks of Oahu

I initially did not plan on hiking this peak. My original goal was to hike Ko’olau Summit, a previously unregistered P1k which is the highest point along the northern section of the Ko’olau Range. I felt I could best access the peak via the Poamoho Trail, which meant I had to go to city hall and get a permit and a code for a combination lock to open a gate. Not having the gate combination would add additional mileage to an already long outing. We got an early start and reached the locked gate while it was still dark out. I tried the code but it didn’t work. I spent at least 45 minutes trying to open the lock, and as sunlight began to creep over the horizon I knew that I failed. Walking several additional miles to the trailhead was not an option since daylight was limited. Dismayed, we got back in the Jeep and drove to a coffee shop near the military base. We sat around wondering what we should do instead, and hike seemed like the only natural answer. I saved a track of Olomana on my phone, a P1k that was also a listed peak on Peakery.com. I was previously discouraged by the class 4 rating, however I was determined to make the day count. There was a lot of discussion online on where to park, but no good guidance, so I decided to park at Maunawili Valley Neighborhood Park. We walked along the road in a big loop towards the Olomana Ridge Trailhead tucked within Royal Hawaiian Golf Club property. As we made our way up the road, we found several no trespassing signs. On most days I might have turned back, however I wasn’t about to be shut down again. We approached a manned security station and walked by with our shoulders up and chest out. No one came out to question us. Finally, we reached the Olomana Trailhead, and my anxiety subsided. I wondered if all the signage is there just to keep the tourists out, while allowing access to the better knowing locals.

Not far from starting off down the trail did we run across several feral pigs. They squealed and scattered as we approached.

The trail climbed to a low section of Olomana Ridge where we crossed paths with the ridge trail. We took a right here and followed the dirt path up the ridge.

There was another group hiking right behind us, and Asaka and I wanted to show them that we were faster. We began hiking at full speed and all of them dwindled except one. This motivation made the ascent go by very quickly. We eventually ditched the final contender by making good time on some steep sections and class 3 rocky scrambles. My heart was pumping by the time we reached the summit. Waimanalo Beach was to the southeast.

Kailua was to the north.

Mokolii Island was barely visible to the northwest.

Konahuanui stood to the west.

The next two peaks, Paku’i and Ahiki stood to the south. They looked pretty intimidating. 

Feeling as motivated as ever, we pushed on towards Paku’i, the second of the three peaks. There was a short down climb here which was aided by a rope.

Aside from the short down climb, getting to the second peak was pretty easy. 

Scrambling to the third and final peak looked to be the most challenging part of the day.

To get there we had to descend a much longer section of exposed rock. Without a rope this would have been sketchy, but with a rope it was just within the bounds of my comfort zone.

Asaka followed after me as I nervously watched from below.

The vertical rock turned into a trail once again as we crossed the final saddle. Then we began snaking our way up the final rocky ridgeline.

The climbing wasn’t all that hard, but it was mentally challenging, requiring high focus. The views from the top were great, even if it was the lowest summit of the three.

There was a summit register which we signed. I think failing on Ko’olau Summit was a blessing in disguise, as this was the most enjoyable hike/climb of the trip. We carefully made our way back towards the second summit, watching every step and double checking every hold.

As we stood on the middle summit we watched several helicopters fly overhead. We were probably giving them a good show.

I was finally able to relax once back at the first summit.

On our return, we decided to follow the ridgeline all the way down. The trail was not as clear as the previous trail, but we found our way.

That night we went to Honolulu where we ate some of the best Ramen I’ve ever tried outside of Japan and Taiwan.

The next day we chose to hike up Koko Head which was more of an exercise hill.

The climb up the old tracks got our hearts pumping. Views from the summit were great, but there were just too many people around for me to truly relax.

Later that afternoon we went back north to find something to do before our flight. With no creativity, we decided to hike a small peak named the Pillbox. It was simple, but views were great in the late afternoon sunlight.

We flew back to California that night.

LOCATION 📍 Mokolii, commonly known as the Chinaman’s Hat is a fascinating and mysterious island located in Kane’ohe Bay, Hawaii. . . THE NAME 🔎 Mokolii (Moko-lee-ee) which translates to “little lizard.” According to ancient Hawaiian mythology this is all that remains of a giant lizards tail that was cut off and thrown into the ocean by goddess Hi’iaka. . 🦎 . . HISTORY 🗃 The island was under private ownership by D-day World War II veteran Joseph Coggins until 1970 before the City and Counsel of Honolulu purchased it. 🔖 . . . EXPLORATION 🚁 Our team assembled a scouting pack of kayaks to explore this mysterious sea scape that was sprawling with marine life in particular juvenile hammerhead sharks. 🦈 . . . After a full paddle around we found a cove on the northwest side of the island that was easily accessible with a small sandy beach. A foot trail spirals up and around the island arriving at a miraculous breath taking view. 🌴🙌🏼👍🏼 . . .

The thriving and energetic city life of Honolulu and Waikiki is what makes Oahu so unique. Where else can you get your drank on at a bar that doubles as a WWII museum, and it’s still just as easy to escape the hubbub as it is on the Neighbor Islands. Just drive up to the North Shore and explore its charming towns, or head west to see Oahu’s rugged beauty. The island’s east side is also growing in popularity, and attractions such as Mokolii Island and the Lanikai Pillbox Hike are becoming more and more insta-famous.
