Boiling Pots and Pe'epe'e Falls. Hilo, Hawaii









Joni and I climbed around and hiked thru here for hours! Its was so much fun and sooo beautiful!
Pe'e Pe'e Falls (pronounced Pay-a Pay-a Falls) is fed by the Wailuku River which also feeds Rainbow Falls further down river. The flow is determined by rainfall. The multi-spouted falls fills up a small pool at the base and the river flows systematically down thru other deep pots and pools. It is freshwater and Joni even spotted a little crayfish. It was bright red!
My morbid side kept thinking if there was a flash flood our butts would be whisked right out of there fast.
This hike was SOO much fun!!!
