As you reverse course and proceed back towards the ocean, the views of the valley walls are magnificent. With the sun now behind you, the details of the valley walls are vivid reminders of the volcanic nature of the Hawaiian Islands.

For the next hour or so, you ride throughout the Ka'a'awa Valley. It's unfortunate, but the two-hour ride takes place only in the late afternoon which places the sun over the back of the valley making views inland somewhat difficult. A morning ride into the valley would likely provide many different views.
