Koko Head Hawaii Oahu Waimanalo USGS Topo Map 1983 Vintage
$46
Printed in its year of first publication, 1983, this USGS 7.5-minute topographic sheet is in excellent condition, never folded and kept smooth and flat with a flawless map area. Covering part of southeastern Oahu, the quad takes in Kailua, Waimanalo, and Waimanalo Beach along with Maunawili inland, reaching out over the Pacific to include bathymetric sea-depth contours offshore. Those offshore depth lines make it more than a land map, tracing the shallows and drop-offs along this stretch of windward coast. Having never been folded, the sheet would frame well.
In stock
This vintage sheet is a 1983 edition of the Koko Head Hawaii USGS topographic map. It is an original 43-year-old United States Geological Survey print in excellent condition.
HOW THIS MAP CAN BE USED
In addition to making a fascinating conversation piece, this sheet would look great in a frame or on display, make a unique and prized gift for anyone interested in this area, be perfect as a reference for genealogy studies or general historical research, or fill that missing piece in your collection. Maps of this vintage are printed on durable stock and are well-suited for outdoor activities and recreation of all kinds, including hiking, backpacking, hunting, rafting and kayaking, backcountry skiing, geocaching, general exploration, treasure hunting, etc.
FEATURES SHOWN ON THE MAP
The Koko Head 7.5-minute map shows cities and towns, roads, paths, railroads, utilities and energy infrastructure, rivers, creeks, elevation contour lines, public land survey lines, county, state, and other administrative boundaries as they existed at the time of the survey in 1952 through 1983. A reddish tint is used on this sheet to indicate urban areas where only landmark buildings are depicted. Outside of those areas, all known structures (houses, businesses, churches, schools, barns, cabins, etc) are shown.
A VALUABLE HISTORICAL RECORD
This map is from the 7.5-minute series, the most detailed series that is widely available from the USGS. The 1983 Koko Head map is a valuable historical record for the area. It contains some placenames and features that have been dropped from more recent maps.
