About this map

The Honaunau Forest Reserve dominates this upland landscape on the Island of Hawaii, where the terrain is marked by land divisions or ahupuaʻa extending from the slopes of Mauna Loa. These divisions, including Kealakekua, Keei 1, and Honaunau, reflect the traditional Hawaiian land management system still visible in the mid-century. Human activity is concentrated around specialized outposts such as Gaspars Dairy and the isolated Hapuu Camp. Water management in this high-elevation environment is evidenced by several Rain Sheds, a Gaging Sta, and the Komakawai Waterholes. An extensive network of Jeep Trails provides the primary means of navigating the interior, connecting remote landmarks like Puu Kinikini and Keanapaakai while crossing the district boundaries of North Kona, South Kona, and Kau.
