1955 Map of Kahakuloa

USGS Topo · Published 1957

About this map

The coastal village of Kahakuloa sits at the base of dramatic cliffs along the northern shore of Maui, serving as a primary point of settlement in this mid-1950s survey. The landscape is defined by the erosion of the West Maui Mountains, where deep ravines like Poelua Gulch and Kahakuloa Gulch cut through the volcanic terrain toward the Pacific Ocean. This era of land management is visible in the designated Kahakuloa Homesteads and the expansive West Maui Forest Reserve, illustrating the balance between agricultural activity and conservation on the islands.
