DID YOU KNOW?
Maunakea recently wore a mantle of winter snow, a reminder of Poliʻahu, the revered snow goddess who reigns over the mountain. The snows of Maunakea are deeply rooted in Hawaiian legend, centering on Poliʻahu’s presence at the summit. According to tradition, she was often in conflict with the fire goddess Pele, as the two vied for dominion over the sacred, cold, and often restricted heights. The mountain’s white winter cloak symbolizes the legendary struggle between fire and ice, with Pele ultimately retreating to the island’s southern regions, leaving Poliʻahu to reign supreme over Maunakea.
