Description

This large map, measuring 58"x45" with its frame illustrates a proposed road crossing between Mauna Loa and Mauna Kea before Saddle Road was built. The map shows elevations and proposed lava barriers that officials hoped would protect Hilo. The map has been reconstructed on plywood with an `ohia frame.
