1963 Map of Puu Pohakuloa

USGS Topo · Published 1964

About this map

Volcanic geology and early 20th-century land divisions define this section of the Big Island's western slopes. The landscape is dominated by massive recent volcanic events, including the Honokua Lava Flow of 1950 and the Alika Lava Flow of 1919, which cut broad swaths across the older vegetation of the South Kona Forest Reserve. These flows illustrate the transformative power of the Mauna Loa eruptions on the South Kona environment, surrounding higher ground like the cinder cone of Puu Pohakuloa.
