About this map

Lāna‘i City serves as the central hub of this island survey, situated atop the plateau where the residential grid of streets like Fraser Ave, Lanai Ave, and Queens St meets the open terrain of Lalakoa. The landscape transitions from these settled areas into the dramatic central highlands, crowned by the peak of Lāna‘ihale and the narrow crests of Kamiki Ridge and Palea Ridge. A dense network of gulches, such as Iwia ole Gulch and Kaiholena Gulch, carves the slopes leading down toward the southern coastline.

At the shore, the resort and harbor area of Manele stands near Manele Cone and the protected waters of Hulopo‘e Bay. The map documents the vital infrastructure connecting the island's interior to its coast, including Manele Rd and Miki Rd, which pass through the broad Pālāwai Basin. This 2017 edition records the modern footprint of the island, from the runways at Lanai Airport to the various trails like the Lanaihale Trl that navigate the ridges.
