1995 Map of Papa

About this map

The Alika Lava Flow of 1919 and the Ho'opuloa Lava Flow of 1926 dominate this South Kona landscape, illustrating the raw geologic forces that define the Big Island's western slopes. Settlement patterns here are dictated by these volcanic events, with the Alika Homesteads and Papa 1 Homesteads occupying the strips of older land between more recent flows. At the coast, the Ho'opuloa Church & Monument stands as a quiet marker of communities impacted by the shifting earth.
