1959 Map of Puu Lehua

USGS Topo · Published 1977

About this map

The high slopes of the North and South Kona Districts are defined here by complex volcanic terrain and a sparse network of ranching infrastructure. Devil Country occupies a significant portion of the central landscape, characterized by numerous volcanic features like Kipuka Paluli, Lupea Kipuka, and Mizotas Kipuka. Human presence is evidenced by isolated outposts such as Puu Lehua Ranch, the Kahelepo House, and the namesake Puu Lehua cinder cone. This 1959 survey reveals how the land was managed through an extensive system of fence lines, jeep trails, and strategically placed rain sheds for water collection. The transition between the North Kona District and South Kona District is clearly delineated, crossing through the Lehuula Mauka Tract and the Hokukano Mauka Tract, illustrating the division of these upland forest and grazing lands.
