Hiking Kolekole Pass

Last Saturday, we went on a short family hike. It had been a long and busy week, so we decided to get out of the house and away from everything still waiting to be done. We need to do that more often! We went and hiked part of Kolekole Pass. For you history buffs, Kolekole pass is where the Japanese initiated their attack on Pearl Harbor. They aircraft used the mountains to mask their approach, and then flew through the pass to attack Wheeler Army Air field. This prevented the Army Air Corps from launching any type of aircraft and possibly interfering with their plans. The pass is only a few miles from our house and offers a great view on the central Oahu plains and part of the leeward coast. Alison took the camera and here is the evidence.
