Kauai's Mount Waialeale is generally considered the rainiest spot on the planet. It drops much of its water down 3,000-foot walls so sheer, that there are only two days per year where the sun passes directly overhead leaving no shadows on all of its walls. Lucky indeed to be overhead in an open cockpit airplane when this occurs. Luckier still to be there after one of the rainiest days of the year and after the ever-present clouds magically vanish for your photographic dream of a lifetime. It’s a scene so achingly beautiful it would make angels cry.
