About this map

Mauna Kea and Mauna Loa dominate the island's interior, their massive volcanic slopes defining the settlement patterns visible in the mid-1970s. While much of the high-elevation terrain is protected within extensive reserves like the Kau Forest Reserve and Hawaii Volcanoes National Park, the coastal fringes reveal a landscape of active industry and cultural history. The windward coast, particularly around Hilo, shows the concentration of the sugar industry with the Pepeekeo Mill and the Puna Sugar Company Mill serving as local economic hubs.
