Kamuela Hawaii Waimea Kohala Forest USGS Topo Map 1982

$35

Printed in its year of first publication, 1982, this USGS 7.5-minute topographic sheet is in excellent condition, never folded and kept smooth and flat with a flawless map area. It takes in the Waimea area on the Big Island of Hawaii, about 46 miles northwest of Hilo, and reaches into part of the Kohala Forest to the north. The 40-foot contours trace the country climbing from the ranch land around Waimea toward the Kohala uplands, the kind of terrain anyone who knows this corner of the island would recognize.
