About this map

The sugar-and-military landscape of North Shore Oahu is clearly defined in this 1960 revision, where the Sugar Mill and surrounding worker settlements like Poamoho Camp and Kemoo Camp 4 mark the industrial heart of the Waialua district. Agricultural water management is evident through a complex network of flumes, ditches, and reservoirs, including the Opaeula Res and Kaheaka Res, which feed the coastal plains from the rising slopes of the Kawailoa Forest Reserve.

Coastal life centers around Waialua Bay, where the Anahulu River meets the sea near the historic Loko Ea fishpond. Significant cultural and institutional landmarks are recorded, from the Kawailoa Soto Mission and School to the expansive Schofield Barracks Military Reservation at the southern edge of the map. This survey provides a precise view of the transition between the coastal village of Haleiwa and the upland plantation camps during a period of established mid-century development.
