A Jeep Trip to Kealapu'ali, "Path of the Warrior"

Please join us for a spectacular day on Saturday, September 15, 2012, traveling by jeep to Kealapu'ali! This amazing activity is open only to the first 50 people who sign up. Price $100 per person. Our day will start in Holualoa where we will gather at 9:00 a.m. in our 4WD vehicles. We will head up the slope of Hualalai through Palani Ranch lands of Kamalumalu criss crossing the path of the old Judd Trail. Kealapu'ali (meaning "Path of the Warrior") is located at the 4,500 ft. elevation. It is a complex of old wooden structures thought to be the oldest wooden buildings on the island. Once an old sheep station, this location was visited by Isabella Bird during her stay in the Sandwich Isles in 1873. The fascinating history of this location takes us through the years when Kealapu'ali became a very prosperous dairy for H.N. Greenwell. Our guide and historical interpreter will be wonderful, knowledgeable, entertaining Maile Melrose, dressed in period clothing. Drinks and refreshments will be served along the way with a hot BBQ lunch at the Palani Ranch Mauka House about a mile away from the Kealapu'ali site. We will caravan up as a group, as well as back down. Plans are to return to the Holualoa area at approximately 3:00 p.m. Please bring jackets, walking shoes, sunscreen and an umbrella. Because of the length of this adventure, children are not advised to attend. Our sincere appreciation to the Kona Historical Society for creating this historical jeep tour and allowing us to present it to you. With aloha, The Craven Family/The Greenwell Family/The Melrose Family
