About this map

Puu Hualalei dominates the landscape of this 1920s survey, its volcanic slopes descending toward the Pacific through the Honuaula Forest Reserve and numerous homestead tracts. The settlement pattern of West Hawaii is clearly visible, with coastal hubs like Kailua and Keauhou connected to upland agricultural interests and early industrial sites such as the Sisal Mill and Kona Mill. This era captures a transition from traditional land divisions to organized homesteading, shown in the detailed labeling of the Kealakehe Homesteads and Ooma 2. Cultural landmarks like the Ahuena Heiau stand near the water, while the interior is marked by the Judd Road and isolated outposts including the Puu Lehua Ranch and a remote Sheep Station. The map provides a look at local infrastructure before modern development, identifying several community centers like Konawaena School and Kawunui Church.
