Location: Upper Left USA | I'm thinking the "bus ride to the top of the volcano, through your adolescent children in, then bicycle down" thingy would be good for all of us.
Well, most of us... |

Location: Boise, Idaho | I've been to Mauna Kea. I've also been to the tops of a lot of other mountains, but never went from sea level in shorts and a t-shirt to cold and almost snowy in one short drive. Bring some warmer clothes if you want to spend any time at the top. Saw a lot of people biking down, but not too many biking up. |
