Mauna Kea Observatories

We ventured to the summit of Mauna Kea. The top is frigid with a wind chill likely below freezing. The landscape looks like Mars! This is one of the astronomical meccas of the world. We want to stay for the sunset and star gazing at the visitor center but there's a stubborn layer of stratospheric clouds.
