The Mala wharf was built in 1922, and almost completely destroyed by Hurricane Iniki in 1992. The small part that remains is being slowly and insidiously eroded by the ocean. Eventually, it will be completely gone.
The 'Iao Valley is a beautiful and lush jungle just west of Wailuku Town. The trees reach 50 ft. and up, for the sky. Each tree tries as hard as the one next to it, to claim what little space there is, to get their share of the sunlight.
