Aloha RI Xterra,

I'm not familiar with the "Mokuleia Firebreak Road". There is an old sugar cane hauling road which runs along parallel and mauka of Farrington Hwy. If you can find an access gate open along Farrington Hwy., just before or in back of Dillingham Airfield, there are indeed some great trails accessible from the old sugar cane road. You can actually make your way up to Peacock Flats near the ridge top of the Waianae mountain range. Again, the problem is gates. Though property owners are supposed to allow access to all the old Hawaiian trails in existence at the time of the "Great Mahele", they are either ignorant of the law or simply ignore it. And, if you are caught trespassing on someone's property, good luck invoking this old law.

There was a time when I would wrap a chain around a gate and just pull it down, but I am much less radical these days.
