1927 Map of Kaohe

USGS Topo · Published 1954

About this map

Keamuku Lava Flow and other massive volcanic deposits dominate this high-elevation landscape on the Island of Hawaii during the late 1920s. This survey records the distinct boundaries of historical eruptions, including the Lava Flow of 1859 and the Lava Flow of 1843, which cut across the Hamakua District and North Kona District. These geological events shaped the available land, leaving behind islands of vegetation like Kipuka Kalawamauna amidst the basalt.
