These activities provide first-hand experiences throughseeing, hearing, feeling, smelling, and tasting. Teachers are encouraged to select and planvisits and camping trips that are related to classroom studies. Wisely used, these activities can enhance learning and add significanceto classroom instruction. This book provides information about placesto visit, persons to cootact, and other pertinent informationnecessary for planning. CHARLES G. CLARK, Superintendent JAN 2 6 1981 INTRODUCTION This guide has been prepared to assist teachers in the planning and implementation of outdoor field tripsas types of learning experi- ences that help young persons learn more dynamically through first- hand observation and experience with the natural environment. The objective of the Outdoor Education program, including camping, is to provide students with first-hand, real-life experiences in natural surroundings, using all of their senses in learning about their environ- ment and their relationship with the ecosystems therein. Further, camp- ing provides experiences in group living which help develop skills in cooperating and working together toward common goals. As is common to all off-campus activities, it isnecessary for the teacher to obtain trip-participation permission slips from each student's parents. Safety rules for all trips are presented in Appendix C so are not listed here. It is urged, however, that each teacher considering an outdoor-education field trip study Appendix C thoroughly and include the recommendations there in planning any trip. For more detailed informa- tion in planning camping and field trips, teachers should refer to the document, Educational Field Trips in Hawaii. The contents of this book are arranged by island--and within each island, by day trips and overnight trips. A brief introduction to each island gives general background, and a table is presentedso that the teacher can scan quickly and obtain decision-making informationon each site on that island. More details are provided in the individual site sheets that follow. Three appendixes supply information applicable to more than one site--Appendix A on Ground Transportation; Appendix B on Resource Agencies and Persons; and Appendix C on a Safety Check List for Field Trips. This document is a start on what is hoped to be a more comprehensive book that will be developed from supplementary input provided by teachers as a result of using the present information. It is urged that each teacher evaluate the usefulness of the book as it stands and offer con- structive suggestions for improving it in the next revision. The loose- leaf format was selected because it makes possible the modification of any site sheet and the addition of new site sheets and possibly more supplementary material.

Its 4038 square miles offer exploration opportunities to students not found elsewhere in the entire state. Of the five volcanoes that formed the island, two re- main active today--Mauna Loa and Kilauea still sporadically spew lava in easily accessible areas. A slow drive along the coasts to the northeast presents an entirely different view of the island. Waterfalls plunge to the ocean from majes- tic cliffs beside the highway. Lush foliage of both native and introduced plants provides color contrasting vividly Wth continuously varying shades of blue of the offshore waters. The beaches are unique. They offer black, white, and green sands on which to relax or from which to explore the numerous tidepools, which abound with countless varieties of marine flora and fauna. Deserts are also a unique feature to the Big Island. In many of these dry areas, reminders of Hawaii's past are found intact. Petro- glyph fields, walls, a,ld massive stone ruins provide clues to long-gone culture. Perhaps the best feature of the island is its size. Just by driving around the island one cen experience its many diverse features, micro- climates, and environments.

SERIES n A 5 o The world-famed volcano of Kilauea, eight miles in circumference An Appreciation of the Hawaii National Park By E. M. NEWMAN, Traveler and Lecturer Written Especially for the United States Railroad Administration §HE FIRES of a visible inferno burning in the midst of an earthly paradise is a striking con­ trast, afforded only in the Hawaii National Park. It is a combination of all that is terrify­ ing and all that is beautiful, a blending of the awful with the magnificent. Lava-flows of centuries are piled high about a living volcano, which is set like a ruby in an emer­ ald bower of tropical grandeur. Picture a perfect May day, when glorious sunshine and smiling nature combine to make the heart glad; then multiply that day by three hundred and sixty-five and the result is the climate of Hawaii. Add to this the sweet odors, the luscious fruits, the luxuriant verdure, the flowers and colorful beauty of the tropics, and the Hawaii National Park becomes a dreamland that lingers in one's memory as long as memory survives. Pa ae three To the American People: Uncle Sam asks you to be his guest. He has prepared for you the choice places of this continent—places of grandeur, beauty and of wonder. He has built roads through the deep-cut canyons and beside happy streams, which will carry you into these places in comfort, and has provided lodgings and food in the most distant and inaccessible places that you might enjoy yourself and realize as little as possible the rigors of the pioneer traveler's life.

  • Statewide Comprehensive Outdoor Recreation Plan 2015
    STATEWIDE COMPREHENSIVE OUTDOOR RECREATION PLAN 2015 Department of Land & Natural Resources ii Hawai‘i Statewide Comprehensive Outdoor Recreation Plan 2015 Update PREFACE The Hawai‘i State Comprehensive Outdoor Recreation Plan (SCORP) 2015 Update is prepared in conformance with a basic requirement to qualify for continuous receipt of federal grants for outdoor recreation projects under the Land and Water Conservation Fund (LWCF) Act, Public Law 88-758, as amended. Through this program, the State of Hawai‘i and its four counties have received more than $38 million in federal grants since inception of the program in 1964. The Department of Land and Natural Resources has the authority to represent and act for the State in dealing with the Secretary of the Interior for purposes of the LWCF Act of 1965, as amended, and has taken the lead in preparing this SCORP document with the participation of other state, federal, and county agencies, and members of the public. The SCORP represents a balanced program of acquiring, developing, conserving, using, and managing Hawai‘i’s recreation resources. This document employs Hawaiian words in lieu of English in those instances where the Hawaiian words are the predominant vernacular or when there is no English substitute. Upon a Hawaiian word’s first appearance in this plan, an explanation is provided. Every effort was made to correctly spell Hawaiian words and place names. As such, two diacritical marks, ‘okina (a glottal stop) and kahakō (macron) are used throughout this plan. The primary references for Hawaiian place names in this plan are the book Place Names of Hawai‘i (Pukui, 1974) and the Hawai‘i Board on Geographic Names (State of Hawai‘i Office of Planning, 2014).

  • RECORDS of the HAWAII BIOLOGICAL SURVEY for 1998 Part 1: Articles
    1 RECORDS OF THE HAWAII BIOLOGICAL SURVEY FOR 1998 Part 1: Articles Editors’ Preface We are pleased to present the fifth annual compilation of Records of the Hawaii Biological Survey. The number and diversity of taxa reported in these issues attest to the value of the Records as part of the ongoing effort to inventory the Hawaiian biota. The Hawaii Biological Survey, established by the Hawaii State Legislature in 1992 as a program of the Bishop Museum, is an ongoing natural history inventory of the Hawaiian Archipelago. It was created to locate, identify, and evaluate all native and non- native species of flora and fauna within the state; and by State Law to maintain the refer- ence collections of that flora and fauna for a wide range of uses. In coordination with related activities in other federal, state, and private agencies, the Hawaii Biological Sur- vey gathers, analyzes, and disseminates biological information necessary for the wise stewardship of Hawai‘i’s biological resources Some of the highlights of Records of the Hawaii Biological Survey for 1998 include: • an update of numbers of species in Hawai‘i; • a checklist of the Hymenoptera of Midway Atoll; • a list of the terrestrial isopods from Midway Atoll; • results of an extensive survey of apple snails from watercourses on O‘ahu; • new records of plants, insects, and other invertebrates resulting from field surveys and continued curation of Hawaiian collections at Bishop Museum and else- where An intensive and coordinated effort has been made by the Hawaii Biological Survey to make our products, including many of the databases supporting papers published here, available to the widest user-community possible through our web server.

  • The Entomology Branch of the Hawaii Department of Agriculture Has Maintained a Continuous Program of Beneficial Organism Introductions for Many Years
    Vol. XXII, No. 1, August, 1975 109 Introductions for Biological Control in Hawaii, 1973 H. K. Nakao, G. Y. Funasaki and C. J. Davis STATE DEPARTMENT OF AGRICULTURE HONOLULU, HAWAII The Entomology Branch of the Hawaii Department of Agriculture has maintained a continuous program of beneficial organism introductions for many years. This paper includes a list of beneficial insects introduced for biological control during 1973, and gives notes on the status of some pests and their purposely introduced enemies. Snail Pest Control Achatina fulica Bowdich (giant African snail). Giant African snail populations remained at low levels in former high density localities on Oahu and Maui. Efforts to eradicate or contain the snail continued on the islands of Kauai and Hawaii. On Kauai, metal- dehyde bait applications were made throughout the year in localized infestations at Poipu and Wahiawa. On Hawaii, a shipment of Gonaxis quadrilateralis (Preston) from Oahu was released along the perimeter of the snail infestation in Kahaluu (Kona) in January, and an aerial bait application was made covering 65 to 70 acres, in August. Galba viridis (Quoy & Gaimard) (liverfluke snail). No recoveries have been made of Sepedon plumbella Wiedemann, S. senex Wiedemann and S. n. sp., sciomyzids introduced from Southeast Asia in 1971 to aid in the control of Galba viridis, the intermediate host of cattle liverfluke. Populations of G. viridis, however, were reported at low levels on Oahu, Maui and Hawaii and this may, in part, be attributed to the predation of Sepedon sauteri Hendel and S. macropus Walker. Weed Pest Control Lantana camara var. aculeata L.
