Scaling Rocks at Kalalau Beach

AIS just completed an interesting job in an exceptionally beautiful place: we scaled rocks from the cliffs above Kalalau Beach on the Napali Coast of Kauai.  All of our equipment was flown in by helicopter, and the chopper also hauled the scaled rock off the beach.  The crew camped on the beach - it was a fairly idyllic spot, although you can see that the poor guys were forced to rinse the dust off in the ocean. The beach and access trail were closed while we did the work (hikers and falling rocks are a bad combination).  The area is scheduled to reopen about November 1.  The local paper has some video of the project:
