About this map

Mauna Kea dominates the northern horizon of this landscape, its slopes descending into a complex network of forest reserves and historically significant volcanic terrain. In the late 1920s, this region of Hawaii functioned as a vital intersection of high-altitude ranching and rugged wilderness. The presence of the Humuula Sheep Station and Puu Oo Ranch highlights the pastoral economy that shared this geography with massive volcanic events, such as the Lava Flow of 1843 and the Lava Flow of 1855, which are meticulously delineated as they carve through the Hilo Forest Reserve.
