1962 Map of Ka Lae

USGS Topo · Published 1964

About this map

Ka Lae, the southernmost point of the Hawaiian Islands, anchors this coastal survey of the Kau District. The landscape is defined by its volcanic heritage and ancient cultural sites, including the Heiau o Kalalea near the point and Heiau o Molilele further inland. Evidence of the mid-20th-century geopolitical era is visible in the Pacific Missile Range Facility and a Coast Guard Reservation, which includes a Light and an Astronomic Station.
