Aloha Jonathan,
Sorry for some reason, your comment got stuck in my spam box. Great job on finishing off all those sections. I can help you but it looks like you are against a time limit. I’ll reach out to you and best of luck.

Kenji, Enjoy your site very much. In April, my hiking partner and I decided to try and do the KST from Aiea to Makapu’u before I move off the island in August. In the past 3 months we have done Aiea to Kulana’ahane, Pali Notches to Mt Olympus, Stairway to Heaven to overlook of Kalihi saddle, Ka’au West ridge to Kuliou’ou West ridge, and we came up the backside of Olomana from Waimanalo. (I don’t mention what we have done to brag but so that you know we are fairly serious hikers and not just someone who did Koko stairs and then wants to transition to the KST.) The only portion we have left to do is between the Pali Lookout and the Kalihi Saddle. We felt comfortable doing everything else on our own, but not this section. We are adventurous but try to be safe. You guys obviously know what you are doing as you have done it multiple times. Would you or one of your friends be willing to take us out on this? Would be willing to tag along if you have something already planned. If not, would be willing to even pay someone for their time. If you know anyone who might be interested—and is knowledgeable and safe—please pass along. Mahalo! Email is gi_jono@hotmail.com

Thanks for another great write-up and for leading the group! ..if I had known the difference was only 1.5 hours or so perhaps I would have stuck it out. But all’s well that ends well..I was meant to do that segment a different time to get the views! ????
