1928 Map of Mauna Loa

USGS Topo · Published 1933

About this map

The summit of Mauna Loa dominates this 1920s topographic study, centered on the massive Mokuaweoweo Crater during the era of the Territory of Hawaii. The map records a landscape in constant transformation, specifically delineating the reach of the Lava Flow of 1851, the Alika Lava Flow of 1919, and the then-recent Lava Flow of 1926. These volcanic events are shown carving through traditional land divisions like Kapapala and Kahuku.
