The most important thing to remember is to definitely NOT leave your stuff in the car by the trailhead. Thefts are common. A good idea may to be leave your stuff in your rental car wherever you are planning to stay upon returning from the hike. You may want to discuss this with the proprieter first to make sure the car gets towed. You can also talk to the hotel you are planning on staying at after your hike and see if they have any suggestions. Who knows, for a small fee, they may temporarly store it for you. Airports usually have lockers as well. Also, public transportation on Kauai is not very good and a good way to get to the trailhead is to actually hitchhike. If you look fairly clean cut and have your camping gear you should have no problem hitching a ride to the trailhead. It's actually a common way to get to the trailhead. Corner

I don't want to leave it in a rental at the trailhead, nor do I really want to purchase a rental for the time we're on the trail. Also, would taking a cab to the trailhead on the day of be logical or are there any other forms of public transportation (bus?) that we could catch. Any suggestions? Cheers Corner
