1928 Map of Hoopuloa

USGS Topo · Published 1933

About this map

The southwest coast of Hawaii Island is defined here by successive lava flows and high-elevation forest reserves during the mid-1920s. Along the shoreline, small coastal settlements like Milolii and Hoopuloa serve as anchors for local life, while the interior is dominated by the South Kona Forest Reserve and Kapua Manuka Forest Reserve. The map meticulously tracks recent geological history, specifically labeling the massive 1916, 1919, and 1926 lava flows that reshaped the terrain. Industrial footprints are visible in the uplands through the Ohin Mill and Koa Mill, suggesting the importance of timber or agriculture in the higher elevations. Evidence of early land division is clear in the Alika Homesteads and Papa Homesteads, while landmarks like the Kahuku Roadhouse and Manuka Mauka House provide stopping points along the primary inland routes.
