The picture above was taken this past weekend after a winter storm. About a foot of snow at its deepest. Mauna Kea (white mountain) is the largest mountain on earth when measured from the seafloor. This shot is taken from Hilo Bay on the Big Island.
In my younger days, we would head up to the summit of Mauna Kea in the early morning to play in the snow, then drive down to the coast to spend the afternoon on the beach in balmy weather. The best of both worlds!
