Reply to comment by JGCities in The tallest sea cliffs in the world, Molokai's north shore, Hawaii [OC] [3609 x 5541] by Chipotle42

My wife and I spent a week in Molokai and the locals just laughed at us. We did the tour down the cliffs to the colony, but opted to hike on foot rather than ride the donkeys. It was absolutely stunning, but the hike back up sapped us of everything we had.

My aunt: “going up was fine but going down was awful”. I still have no idea what she’s smoking. Going down was a piece of cake. Going back up was brutal

You use different muscles going downhill, ones that aren't used regularly, so going down a long, steep, slope can cause aches you're not used to.
