Kipahulu Hawaii Haou USGS 7.5-Min Topo Map 1983 Vintage

$46

Printed in its year of first publication, 1983, this USGS 7.5-minute topographic sheet is in good condition, never folded, with just a very light horizontal crease and a small blemish in the lower left corner. It covers the Kipahulu region on the eastern flank of Maui, taking in part of Haleakala National Park and the Haleakala Wilderness along with the communities of Kipahulu and Haou. This is the wet, deeply eroded southeastern side of Haleakala, where the terrain drops from the high volcanic slopes toward the coast, mapped here from a 1950 through 1983 aerial and field survey. Having never been folded, the sheet lies flat and would frame well.
