The Summit and Kīpahulu Districts of Haleakalā National Park will reopen by Saturday afternoon after park crews assess road, campground, and building conditions, and clean up downed trees and rock slides caused by the storm. The summit will be open for sunrise viewing on Sunday morning. Visitors are advised that some areas of the park may close periodically for safety reasons if further rock slides or downed trees occur.
The park is monitoring Hurricane Julio and will determine if or when to close the park based on storm conditions. Please call 808-572-4400, option 2, for the latest closure information. In case park phone lines are down visitors should also check the park’s Facebook page or website (www.nps.gov/hale).
