Thanks, Dave. There were a few people who biked up to the summit, from s/l, and a lot who hiked across the valley filled with craters, but I don't think anyone hikes all the way up for sunrise.
There WAS a 36 mile race from sea level to the Summit called The Run to the Sun, but the National Park administration has prohibited it. There is still and unofficial run to the sun every year, burt it is not the same. http://www.hurthawaii.com/2011/02/unoffical-run-to-the-sun-haleakala-on-maui-march-20th-maui-charm-march-18-20th.html I may be a Marine, but I am far too old for that nonsense.
