Into The Lost Park-Sacred Falls Oahu Hawaii

Hiking adventure to Sacred Falls. The park is closed due to unsafe conditions and a rock slide that tragically killed and injured many people many years back on mothers day. We live on this island and wanted to pay our respects. We picked up any garbage we saw along the way and did not swim out of respect. This is a Sacred Place to the Hawaiian people and should be treated that way of you decide to go. The feeling of Mana in the valley is strong. Sacred Falls is a beautiful special place but it is also dangerous as it is a canyon and rock slides are known to happen. If you decide to go do so at your own risk as it is also illegal to hike. People died there please be respectful.
