kalalea
AIRVŪZ STAFF NOTE :
Kalalea is a distinctive looking mountain on the Hawaiian island of Kauai, the westernmost and fourth-largest of the Hawaiian islands. It's situated in the southeastern part of the island, near the town of Lihue. Famously, the mountain can be seen in the opening of the 1981 blockbuster movie Raiders of the Lost Ark, the first of the Indiana Jones series. In the opening scene, the image of fictional "Paramount Mountain" fades to a shot of the very real Kalalea, whose profile is oddly similar.

BADGES THIS VIDEO HAS EARNED:
One of the range’s most unique formations is Kalalea Mountain (that one that sticks up in the middle). Kalalea Mountain was originally named Mano (Hawaiian for “shark”), but due to its resemblance to a gorilla’s head (facing left in my pictures), the mountain was given a new nickname: Kong Mountain.
