17th Century Barony Maps c.1609 - The Halfe Baronies of Lvrgh and Cole Mackernan.

I've accounts of almost a early dozen Waialeale ascents and will use them to show how the Waialeale Trail has evolved since the nineteen century.
But as shown in the old maps, little was known of the interior. If you've hiked some of the trails south of Koaie Gorge, you'll appreciate how rarely you can see even fifty feet, much less see enough to get an idea of the lay of the land.
The early maps show little detail of the interior of the island, mostly speculation. For example, this one doesn't show Koaie Stream and the Makaweli drainage is quite small. Nothing at Kawaikini, the highest point on the island. It does show a route approximating the Alakai Swamp Trail, then dropping into Wainiha Valley. Detail along the coast line is fairly accurate.

I wonder what the areas on the map with even fewer dots than "Very Low" are supposed to signify.

One note added to the map.
This web site documents the access sites on the Wabash River from Huntington, Indiana to the confluence with the Ohio River. It includes pictures and descriptions of the access sites and their amenities.
We personally visited the access sites. The first half of the river (from Huntington to Tecumseh) was done by boat. We then drove to the access sites on the second half of the river (from Terre Haute to the confluence with the Ohio).
ABOUT THE WABASH RIVER
The Wabash has always been Indiana's most famous river. Occupying the heartland of the state, the river drains two-thirds of the 92 counties (over 33,000 square miles) as it flows over 475 miles to its confluence with the Ohio below Mount Vernon. The river rises in Ohio near Fort Recovery and flows for only thirty miles before it becomes entirely an Indiana River. In addition to being Indiana's official state river, the Wabash is also the longest free-flowing river east of the Mississippi.
It is a river of many faces and moods. At times it occupies a huge valley which was carved by a glacial runoff but it also flows through a partially filled valley formed before the glacial advances. In its upper stretches the Wabash moves across the fertile, flat land in a narrow, shallow trench.
A trip down any other river in the state will not give as complete a view of Indiana as the Wabash. You will not experience a pristine natural environment (except in isolated sections) but you will see Indiana today and a glimpse of the past. The river is usually muddy and slow moving as it drains much of Indiana's fertile farmland. This factor alone should not deter you from trying the Wabash. The upper end of the Wabash is very shallow with numerous log jams clogging the river and making navigation of the river tiring in all but high water (and then it may be dangerous).
Not much changed here in some ways, except for the major reconstructions in the square bounded by Petty Cury, Corn Exchange Street, St Andrews Street and Downing Street to make way for Lion Yard and the Grand Arcade.
Note also the car park denoted on New Square and the vanished lanes to the north of Fitzroy Street.
