While you can usually go to Haleakala National Park without a reservation, entering the park during sunrise hours does require one. Maui’s Haleakala sunrise hours are between 3 am and 7 am, so unless you plan on driving out at 2 am and waiting four hours for the sun to come up, your best bet […]
With only two inches of rainfall per year and temperatures regularly reaching 120 degrees Fahrenheit in the summer, Death Valley is one of the most inhospitable places on Earth. However, life is able to adapt to any place on the planet, even Death Valley. In fact, the ecosystem of the valley has a surprising amount […]
Of course, all the islands of Hawaii are gorgeous and well worth visiting, but there are a few that stand out. Which island draws your eye the most will depend on what exactly you’re looking for during your trip. If you’re hoping to see Hawaii the way it looks in the movies, then we recommend […]
The name “Death Valley” was invented by a group of ill-fated pioneers known as the Lost ’49ers. Their story begins in the late 1840s when a man named James Marshall discovered gold in the Sierra Nevada foothills, beginning the famous California Gold Rush. Thousands of people traveled west to make their fortunes in the foothills, […]
The largest American national park outside of Alaska, Death Valley is famous for its extreme climate. It is the driest spot in all of North America, receiving only two inches of rain each year.

If you look at a map of the Hawaiian Islands, you’ll see eight major islands and over 100 tiny ones.

There are a few things that make Haleakala the best place to watch the sunrise in Maui. The first is complete visibility. The Haleakala volcano covers about 75% of the island of Maui, so the highest point of the volcano is also the highest point of the island. From the summit, there’s nothing whatsoever blocking […]
Baldwin Beach Park encompasses the beach itself and a few facilities closer to the road. While it’s called a park, the real draw here is the beach, which is one of the most beautiful in Maui.

The water at the bottom of Horseshoe Bend is the Colorado River, the same river that runs through the Grand Canyon. The temperature of the water in Colorado averages around 50 degrees Fahrenheit year-round, so we wouldn’t necessarily recommend swimming in it. However, taking a kayak, canoe, or raft down the river is a great […]
If you’re planning on just seeing the city itself, we’d recommend light sneakers or sandals when visiting Sedona. The weather there is warm year-round, so heavy shoes can get uncomfortably hot when you’re walking around town. However, if you’re going hiking, we’d recommend hiking shoes or boots even on the easiest trails. Regular shoes tend […]
