Recorded January 17, 2004. Waimea Canyon is a large canyon, approximately ten miles long and up to 3,000 feet deep, located on the western side of Kauaʻi in the Hawaiian Islands. The canyon was formed by a deep incision of the Waimea River arising from the extreme rainfall on the island's central peak, Mount Waiʻaleʻale, among the wettest places on earth. The video begins on the ground at the Waimea Canyon Lookout and then continues in the air from a helicopter. The video concludes back on the ground at the Puu Hinahina Viewpoint.
