Drive to W.M. Keck Observatory and Hilo



Drove up to the Keck Observatory.  It is at about 14,000 foot elevation. Then continued on to Hilo and then back to Kona along the north shore.  Pretty drive with lots of climate changes.  From desert and cactus to snow to rain forest.  



 Observatory on the hill top



 Driving the road to the observatory.  Very steep and rough.



 Even saw snow.
