Mauna Kea is always a beautiful sight with its snow caps during the winter months. I think this snowfall made it down to about the 10,000 ft. level. Mauna Kea is 13,796 ft. high at its peak and is the home to Hawaii&#8217;s successful high tech astronomy community and industry.<\/p>\n<p>I spent more than a week on the Big Island, mainly in the Honokaa area on vacation.
