About this map

Agricultural homesteads and industrial milling operations define this coastal stretch of the Hamakua District during the early twentieth century. The landscape is deeply incised by numerous drainages such as Papalele Gulch and Manienie Gulch, which dictated the placement of settlements and transport routes above the sheer cliffs of the Pacific Ocean. High-altitude land divisions are marked by the Ahualoa Homesteads and Pohakea Homesteads, reflecting the era's land grant patterns for small-scale farming.
