1983 Map of Waimea Canyon

About this map

Waimea Canyon State Park and the Na Pali-Kona Forest Reserve dominate the landscape of west-central Kauai in this early 1980s survey. The map reveals a complex network of water management and hydroelectric infrastructure, including the Kekaha Ditch, the Olokele Ditch, and the Mauna Powerhouse with its associated Penstock. These engineering works, carved into steep ridges like Ohulelua Ridge and Kahana Ridge, illustrate the intensive efforts to divert water from the high-elevation streams for lower-lying agricultural use.
