1983 Map of Makaha Point

About this map

Pacific Missile Range Facility installations stand in sharp contrast to the surrounding natural conservation lands on the western coast of Kauai. The landscape is defined by the dramatic descent of numerous valleys, such as Nualolo Valley and Makaha Valley, which carve through high ridges toward the Pacific Ocean. This 1983 revision captures the area during a period of established military presence alongside expanding state-protected lands like Polihale State Park and Kokee State Park.
