Restored, old Hawaiian trail through lava

Hawaii is covered by 98 topos. Fortunately, you won’t need all of them. As of this writing, you can buy Hawaii topos (as well as lots of interesting books) on the Big Island at Basically Books at 160 Kamehameha Avenue, Hilo, HI 96720; 800-903-MAPS (toll-free); or www.basicallybooks.com.

James A. Bier’s excellent series of maps, published by the University of Hawaii Press, includes a map for each major island. They are widely available on the mainland and in the Islands and are invaluable for driving. Another useful map is Earthwalk Press’s Hiking Map & Guide, Hawai’i Volcanoes National Park. Earthwalk Press’s maps include topographic data, trail descriptions, and a wealth of other information. If you can’t find their maps in your travel store, call Bored Feet Press at 888-336-6199 (toll-free) or visit their Web site at www.boredfeet.com.
