Today we took up a hike up to the very tippy top of Diamond Head. Scientists believe that the type of massive, but brief, eruption that formed the shape of the symmetrical crater is monogenetic, and therefore, they do not believe Diamond Head will ever erupt again.
It's about a 1.5 mile hike round trip and takes up to 2 hours. It wasn't very hard, except that it's unpaved and rocky. The hardest part was probably the stairs near the top. There are 74 of them!! Yikes! Lola was a champ and did the entire hike with me by herself and didn't require any help. She was so proud of herself when she got to the top! She took her own photos of the view. It was spectacular.
