Don't Look Down Part 2


Again, I cannot take credit for this pic, but this shows the Haiku Staircase as it descends down the ridge from the top of the Koolau Ridge above Kaneohe on the Windward Shore of Oahu.

Definitely not for the faint of heart, this staircase was featured in an episode of "Magnum PI" in the 1980s, and the City of Honolulu and State of Hawaii have been trying to figure out a way to open it to public hiking without incurring major liability issues for years. So far, it's been endlessly tied up in litigation.
