The Kalalau Valley lies hidden along the inaccessible Na Pali Coast of Kauai. The valley is the largest on the island. Those magic shapes and mountains rise six thousand feet to cut the sky. They were carved over millions of years by massive rains, landslides, and the crushing weight of the volcano, relentlessly working away at what was once a comparatively featureless shield volcano.
(This picture was taken with an average digital camera, it REALLY does look like that. The mist seen wafting up the valleys is from a really vicious shore-break.)
