One HUGE benefit of living in Upcountry Maui are the typically cool, clear, calm, and quiet nights. Throughout the years I've traveled through the empty roads of Kula many many times, enjoying the cool mountain air and clear night skies. The evening air becomes particularly nice in the area of 15800 Haleakala Hwy., where a multitude of open space brings the sweet scent of flowers wafting through. While enjoying these wonderful scents, glance to the sky and you will discover a brilliant view of the stars surrounding you. Up here, star gazing is truly wonderful as this serene Kula neighborhood combines little to no distracting environment lights with crystal clear night skies, creating a virtual theater of constellations, planets, and shooting stars. In fact, on occasion rocks entering the Earth's atmosphere streak across the sky over Haleakala Crater like a burning comet. While just an illusion, these marvelous shooting stars seem close enough to reach out and catch! While taking in the beautiful stars, it is not uncommon to see silent winged silhouette float into view; an elegant owl on the prowl for a field mouse. Follow his descent and you may catch a pack of spotted deer roaming the many rolling hills of Kula. Look on as they walk further downhill towards Pukalani and witness the beauty of Maui at night; roads, homes, and businesses light up the island from the South Shore into Central Maui; making for an eye catching contrast to the shadowy calm of Upcountry.
Sights like these truly make Upcountry Maui a special place to live.
If you would like to have the pleasure of these experiences on a day to day basis, there's no better place to experience them than at your new Maui home on 15800 Haleakala Hwy. !!!
