Haleakala with the top down?

Hi all, Has anyone tried driving to the summit to see the sunrise with the top down the whole way? How brutal is the cold? I think it would be amazing to drive with all the stars overhead.

The cold is pretty brutal with no wind, so I would think you%26#39;d freeze yourself driving with the top down, unless you were very bundled up.

Haleakala with the top down?

Brrrrr!!!, I dare you.


I%26#39;m dumb enough to try it. HaHa

Only if you%26#39;re part polar bear!

The day we went it was a mix of rain and sleet. Plus we had about 40 mile an hour winds. It was almost impossible to walk to the little viewing hut at the top. Which I might add was flooded becasue of all the rain. But by golly we%26#39;d come all that and we were going to brave the weather...no matter what! We went with a tour company so we had rain gear and ski gloves!

We saw just a sliver of sun, one of those that was so quick if you blinked you missed it.

I was disappointed and wanted to see that beauftul sunrise you see in the tour books.

Oh well, mother nature is a fickle lady!


I better count on bring another suitcase for the winter gear lol

Go for it! You will eventually thaw out! And please post back with the outcome.

PS- will you keep it down in the rain?

and please comment on my auto rental post about convertible pricing too, pretty please!


If it%26#39;s raining, the top goes up. The coldest I ever was in my life was at a Packer Game in Milwaukee with an easterly wind off Lake Michigan while it was raining and about 40 degrees. After three hours I literally could not feel my feet until we got home. Walking to the car, I thought I was going to sprain an ankle.

I forgot to add- If it%26#39;s raining I go back to bed.
