Topographical Map of Eastern Hawaiʻi

A black and white image of Charles Wilkes' topographical map of Hawaiʻi island. It is a map of the eastern portion of the island. Important towns represented by black dots are labeled along the coastline extending from Hilo to Kupapaʻu. It also has roughly drawn lines indicating roads/trails that go out from Hilo, along the coast, and around Mauna Loa and Kīlauea volcanoes. There are circles and outlines of the various craters of Kīlauea and Mauna Loa. They are labeled. Around Mauna Loa crater there are a series of elevation lines going out from the crater to indicate elevation changes in the landscape. There is a title for the map in the top right corner of the image. It reads, "MAP Part of the Island of Hawaii Sandwich Islands Shewing The Craters and Eru of May and June 1840 by the U. S. Ex. Ex. 1841." On the bottom right corner there is a scale for miles.
