1962 Map of Milolii

USGS Topo · Published 1964

About this map

The coastal village of Milolii remains a focal point on this South Kona shoreline, where traditional Hawaiian land divisions and recent volcanic history intersect. This 1962 field-checked survey documents a landscape transformed by the Alika Lava Flow of 1919 and the Hoopuloa Lava Flow of 1926, the latter of which famously overran the original settlement at Hoopuloa. Along the rugged coast, ancient sites like the Ahole Heiau near Puu Hinahina Bay stand in proximity to numerous ruins at Papa Bay and Kipahoehoe Bay, suggesting a long history of habitation before the lava flows altered the terrain. The map details the steep descent from the Kipahoehoe South Kona Forest Reserve toward a string of remote inlets, including Honomalino Bay and Kapua Bay, many of which were accessible only by narrow coastal trails and jeep paths during this era.
