Around 10:40 I caught up w/Tom and a couple.  Sorry I didn't get their names.  They were waiting/resting at the point where the Rim trail leaves the Waiau Trail turning to the right/south (1350').  A few minutes later I took this picture.  It was nice to be going down hill for a change.

From the upper portion of Punanani Gulch looking toward Pearl Harbor in the hazy distance.
