1995 Map of Kapoho

USGS Topo · Published 1998

About this map

The volcanic landscape of the East Rift Zone dominates this coastal survey, where the physical geography is defined by successive layers of history. Significant geological events are marked by the Lava Flow of 1840, the Lava Flow of 1955, and the more recent Lava Flow of 1960, which shaped the coastline around Cape Kumukahi. Near the summit of Kapoho Crater, the presence of Green Lake and the settlement of Kapoho provide a stark contrast to the surrounding fields of cinder and stone. Along the shore, the U S Coast Guard Reservation stands at the easternmost point of the island, while the coastal reaches include Isaac Hale Park and the Mackenzie State Recreation Area. Smaller sites like Koa (Site) and various cemeteries offer touchpoints for genealogists researching family lands and heritage in this dynamic environment.
