This is just a small sample of what can be seen on top of Haleakala National Park on the island of Maui.
The drive to the summit (10 000+ feet) is quite enjoyable and the scenery is beyond words. The crater of the volcano is on the right of these buildings.
"The journey to the summit of Haleakala brings you from coastal Maui, to the remote, native, high-elevation world protected by the park. Here on Maui's highest peak you find an island in the sky where the clouds spread out below you like a second layer of ocean. Cindercones, rare plants, native birds, and hiking trails await your discovery."
