Saddle Road (between Mauna Kea and Kaumana Caves)

Big Island of Hawai'i
Along Hwy 200, a/k/a Saddle Road
Scenes from a moving rental car of the area east of Mauna Kea and west of the Kaumana Caves, as the landscape transitions from rocky lava beds to more lush rainforest (or vice versa, depending on the direction). (In the distance in this first shot is Hilo.)
