I thought about doing it expedition style a lot of gear, and a lot of camps, similar to Everest or Denali. Go slow, but have all the gear you need to be safe. You'd probably end up climbing the mountain a total of 4 times LOL.

I would like to do the exact same thing but instead hike into the back of Waimea Canyon.

The real question for you all is ...

Why did you leave paradise?

I have been to The Islands a few times.

The last time I went, I was a phone call away from SELLING IT ALL....

Here you can see a bowl shaped in the rock presumably to crush and grind plant material.

Possible, but the Hawaiians usually used actual bowls (of stone or wood) for such tasks. Perhaps a evaporative pan for making salt from sea water. Was it on a level area?

Sorry Phage better late then never. :/

That entire rock formation was about just below hip to a 6' tall person. It was slopped not perfectly level and those deep scratches were on the same rock adjacent. Almost as though you could sharpen and continue doing what you were doing.
