2024 Map of Puu Kahakahakea

USGS Topo · Published 2024

About this map

The Lava Flow of 1887 dominates the northeast corner of this coastal topographic study, illustrating the historical volcanic activity along the southern shoreline of Hawaii. This high-elevation terrain is defined by Puu Kahakahakea and the adjacent Kahakahakea, which stand as prominent landmarks overlooking the Pacific Ocean. The landscape is largely defined by its geological history, where the stark boundaries of basalt flows meet the sea. The map traces the coastal edge at Kaimu'uala, providing a clear record of the intersection between historic lava deposits and the water's edge in a region where the land itself is a relatively recent addition to the island's geography.
