Description
"Haleakalā Sunrise - Otherworldly" by Patti Deters. The view from the top of the Haleakalā volcano is like nothing I'd ever seen. It's a barren yet beautiful landscape that looks like it could be from another planet. At a little over 10,000 feet above sea level, Haleakalā is a huge shield volcano that hasn't erupted in over 200 years. Rising from the Hawaii island of Maui, this mountain is a popular tourist destination for viewing sunrises and sunsets. Equally amazing is the red sand and rock landscape vista that reveals itself as the sun appears each day. Located in what is now Haleakala National Park, it was called "House of the Sun” by early Hawaiians.
