and across the Waimea Valley, and over to Maui -- please, take the
time to enjoy a beautyful ride.
Second Day

calf. They will bolt out in front of you at the last minute. Go very
slowly through cattle. Please bive the horses, or people on horses,
and all vehicals the right of way and be courtious. Stay on the road,
don"t go riding in the pastures.
2. -"Mauna Kea Road" This is all nunting area. You will come to the highest
point of the ride in the section. If you have any problems here, you are a long
way from help. Again - fire is a big concern, and watch for hunters. See you on
the other side.
