1995 Map of Kipukapakekake

About this map

Ke A Po'omoku Lava Flow and several other volcanic tracks dominate this mid-1990s record of Hawaii's active landscape. The map provides a detailed look at the geological scars of the Big Island, most notably the Lava Flow of 1880 which cuts through the Kapapala Forest Reserve. Human presence is sparse, marked primarily by the small settlements of Bates and Kauhiuhi and a network of 4wd roads used for traversing the uneven terrain. The boundary for the Hawaii Volcanoes National Park and its accompanying Hawaii Volcanoes Wilderness highlights the conservation of this unique environment. Large open tracts like Ainapo and the Pahuamimi region show the character of the island's uplands, where volcanic flows meet forested ridges and high-elevation cinder cones like Pu'u Pili.
