Exploring Exit Glacier Short trails lead to panoramic and close-up views of Exit Glacier, the architect of this landscape. This is a wild place. Observe all warning signs and use good judgment. The glacier shifts and cracks, wildlife roams freely, and outwash streams change course, flooding regularly. Less than 100 years ago this entire trail system was under ice. Look for “date signs” marking Exit Glacier’s terminus in past years as you walk through the forest that has sprung up in the wake of the glacier.

PLAIN

A one-mile accessible loop leads through the cottonwood forest to a panoramic view of the Exit Glacier valley. From here you can see Exit Glacier spilling down from the Harding Icefield to its terminus at the outwash plain.

dress in layers

It gets colder the closer you get to the glacier, and the weather can change quickly. You are in a temperate rain forest after all!

bring water

Some of the trails are moderately strenuous, and water from streams is not safe to drink unless you purify it.

wear sturdy shoes

Most of the trails are unpaved.

Wear shoes that will keep your feet dry and give you traction in steep or rocky areas.

prepare for the trail Take a moment to be sure you are dressed appropriately and have adequate supplies for your hike. Use the facilities before you start your hike. There are no restrooms on the trails.

Once at the edge of the outwash plain there is no “trail” to the toe of Exit Glacier. If water levels are low, you can explore the rocky outwash plain and make your way towards the Glacier. Be prepared to get your feet wet. Don’t try to cross deep or fast moving channels.

A moderately strenuous hike leads over newly de-glaciated bedrock to the edge of Exit Glacier. Here you can feel the chilly winds off the glacier, gaze up at walls of blue ice and hear the sounds of this active glacier as it grinds downhill.

No Pets

No Feeding Wildlife

No Bikes avoid overhanging ice

Ice can fall at any time. Don’t approach the glacier where the ice is over your head.

Haleakalä National Park National Park Service U.S. Department of the Interior

Keonehe‘ehe‘e The trail descends into a former eruption zone, where fountaining lava created a relatively recent series of cinder cones. From a distance the cinder desert appears devoid of life. But down in the basin unusual species of plants, birds, and insects—often hidden among the rocks—have adapted to the summit’s extremes.

For hikers, the trail is also an exercise in adaptation. Weather, solar radiation, and the effects of altitude are more intense here. The walk down can be deceptively easy; allow twice as much time for the steep return ascent.

Be prepared for extreme and sudden weather changes.

Dress in layers. Bring rain gear.

Be alert for symptoms of altitude sickness: headache, nausea, dizziness, shortness of breath.

Protect yourself from sun. Cover up, and use sunscreen, hat, sunglasses.

Carry and drink lots of water.

You are responsible for your own safetyPlease…

Respect the ‘äina (land). Many people consider the park lands to be sacred. Be mindful.

Stay on designated trails. Off-trail hiking can kill unseen plants and animals or destroy cultural resources.

Leave things as you find them, including rocks (possibly plants’ or animals’ homes) and archeological sites.

Leave nothing behind, including orange peels, toilet paper, nutshells (decomposition is slow).

Help keep nënë (Hawaiian goose) wild. NO FEEDING OR APPROACHING. Tame nënë often get hit by cars.

Limit group size to 12 or less.

Enter on foot or horseback only. No bicycles.

No pets allowed on trail.

Clean boots of dirt and seeds.

Camp in designated areas only (permit required).

Safety Tips

• Wear proper footwear, be prepared for changing weather, and carry water and a map.

• Expect slippery rocks and loose gravel at cliff edges and along trails.

• Be aware of breaking waves—they can knock you down and sweep you out to sea.

Protect the Park

• Keep pets leashed at all times.

• Leave No Trace. Carry out what you carry in.

• Do not feed, disturb, or remove wildlife.

• Leave plants, rocks, and other natural or historic features where you find them.

Everything is here to rejoice the soul… summer warmth…fresh salt tang from the sea… the reddest of sunsets, and unforgettable pictures from any height of granite rock.
