1954 Map of Puu O Kali

USGS Topo · Published 1956

About this map

Puu o Kali rises above a landscape of mid-century homesteading and agricultural development on the leeward slopes of Maui. This 1954 field-checked survey reveals an intricate network of residential allotments, including the Waiohuli Keokea Beach Homesteads and Waiakoa Homesteads, illustrating the mid-century transition of former ranch and plantation lands into organized residential districts. The northern reaches show the industrial influence of the sugar era with the presence of Camp K-3 and the Pulehu Camp (site) near the Maui Airport (Puunene Airport). Water management is central to the terrain, marked by numerous water tanks and reservoirs needed to support life on the dry, gulch-cut slopes of Alae and Keokea. Local history is anchored at the Puu Hale Cemetery and Lihue Cem, while the Haleakala Highway provides the primary artery through the diverse districts of Kealahou and Omaopio Homesteads.
