Kahana Hawaii Hauula Kaaawa USGS Topo Map 1983 Vintage

$34

This USGS 7.5-minute topographic map is a first-year 1983 print, published and printed the same year, and it is in excellent condition—very lightly handled, never folded, and smooth and flat. Covering the windward coast of Oahu in Honolulu County, the quad area takes in Hauula, Kaaawa, Punaluu, and Waikane, with the deep valley of Kahana defining the sheet USGS named it for. Drawn from aerial and field survey work spanning 1951 through 1983 at a scale of 1:24000, it details the sharp ridgelines and coastal flats of this stretch of the Koolau range, and having never been folded it would frame cleanly.
