The morning sun greets Maui's Haleakala National Park, illuminating a rare native silverswordan endangered plant that grows only on the heights of this dormant volcano. Haleakala, Hawaiian for "House of the Sun," lives up to its name when light fills its immense crater at sunrise and sunset. Austere but compelling, the rugged heights of this volcano contrast starkly with the lush vegetation found on its lower slopes.
