1981 Map of Piihonua

USGS Topo · Published 1983

About this map

The Wailuku River carves a dramatic path through this 1981 survey, featuring iconic landmarks like the Boiling Pots and numerous cataracts such as Pepee Falls and Pakaluahine Falls. The landscape is fundamentally defined by volcanic history, with the massive Lava Flow of 1855 and Lava Flow of 1881 clearly delineated as they descend toward the coast. These geological formations dictate the placement of human settlements and the extensive system of Punahoa Homesteads and Kaumana Homesteads that hug the lower slopes.
