STUDENTS TAKE HIKE
OVER kOOLAU RANCE
Find Trail Cut to Within Three
Hundred Feet From Mount
Olympus.

\ party of College Of Hawaii stu
and Mr.. and Mrs A. r. Keller, tried
out the trail which the Trail and Noun
tain Club is having cut over the Koolau
Range The students on the hike were
Ed Garden, Ted Tracy, Fook On and
William Barnhardt. These seven am
blers left the Kaimuki car line at Tenth
avenue at half-past seven o clock in the
morning and walked up to the Palolo
crater, gathering land shells along the
way.
They left the crater at ten o clock,
following the ridge to the left and
struck the new trail. They followed
the trail as far as it went. and then
had to break their way through the
brush, a distance of about three hum
bred feet, to reach the summit of Mount
Olympus, which is the knoll on the
main ridge of the Koolau Range. Here
they were enshrouded in heavy clouds.
which cut off their view entirely, but
they caugat a glimpse of Waimanalo
Beach once through a rift in the clouds.
The elevation at this point is 2505 feet,
and at the Palolo Crater House, where
they made their stop, the altitude is
1900 feet.
On Mount Olympus the party de-
voured their luncheon. After reviving
their vigor, the wanderers proceeded
down the other side of the range. in
tending to make Pauoa Valley, but they
got mixed on the trail and started down
the ridge between Palolo and Manoa.
They continued along this course until
they passed the Staghorn, and then they
cut down to Manoa Valley, and reached
the car line there at quarter-past
four o clock in the afternoon.
On the Eva side of Olympus they
passed a rain gauge which registered
SIG inches. The party expects to
take another trip before school opens,
next time negotiating Kalihi Pass.
