1956 Map of Makahalau

USGS Topo · Published 1957

About this map

The high slopes of the Big Island's volcanic interior define this 1950s survey, marking the transition from ranching lands to the Mauna Kea Forest Reserve. Small settlements like Mana and Makahalau are centers of activity in this upland landscape, supported by a specialized infrastructure of water management. Numerous pump stations, including the Makahalau Pump Station and Puu Io Pump Station, along with various troughs and tanks, illustrate the necessity of piped water in this porous volcanic terrain.
