Went looking for Zeus....he wasn't home

Hiked the Mt Olympus Trail [Wa'ahila Ridge] on Oahu this morning. I got my money's worth on this one.

Fairly technical in some places....hand over hand on rocks and roots, and in one location, a rope that is almost essential for making it to the top of one rise.

Found my roots....they suck when wet
This is a trail....?

  1. Considering your shield emblem, I would have thought that you knew the right neighborhood to be in for that Guy.

    Good job on the hike. The best I could do was Diamond Head, but that was because the wife & in-laws were along (yeah, that's it ...).

    Any good Hawaiian scotch?

  2. Touche!

    I'll hit DH when the wife and kids come out to visit. In the meantime, I'm on a quest to regain my Spartan fighting form [weight loss and working out].

    Certainly haven't found any local Scotch, and I'd be quite hesitant to try it if I did. But the NEX at Pearl has a pretty good selection.

  3. The scotch would probably be as good as the local dark 'traditional' dark rum for mai-tais. My wife brought some back, but now regrets it.

    Good luck with the regimen. If you do well, it might just inspire me.
