2017 Map of Lualailua Hills

About this map

The southern slopes of Haleakalā descend toward the Pacific Ocean in this coastal and high-elevation survey of Maui. The landscape is defined by its dramatic vertical drop from Haleakalā Crater and Haupa'akea Peak down to the southern coastline. Significant topography such as the Luala'ilua Hills and Pu'ukeōkea rise above numerous drainage systems, including Waiohuli Gulch and Kepuni Gulch. Human presence is concentrated along the lower reaches and the coastline, where named locations like Manawainui, Alena, and Kīpapa are found. The northern portion of the map encompasses a section of Haleakalā National Park, featuring the Sliding Sands Trail and high peaks like Magnetic Peak and Kolekole. This map captures the transition from alpine volcanic features to the coastal points at Nakaohu Point and Wekea Point, connected by the winding route of highway 31.
