pleasant surroundings where those hving in the low lands may- 

 go for the recuperation of bodily energy and of spirit has been 

 recognized and it is believed that the plan which has been evolved 

 will permit of this without interference with the main purposes 

 for which the forest reserve in this region was set aside. 



Along the small streams of Kokee and Halemanu a series of 

 47 camp sites have accordingly been surveyed out, and these 

 vary in size from .3 to 2.0 acres. As a rule they are situated 

 in open meadow land at the bottom of the shallow valleys which 

 dissect this high plateau region at the general elevation of 3,500 

 feet above the sea. The rainfall here is not excessive and on ac- 

 count of the elevation the nights as a rule are quite cool. 



A great variety of scenery, from picturesquely colored and 

 curiously eroded cliffs in the adjacent Waimea Canyon to miles 

 and miles of heavy native forest, surrounds the Kokee Camps 

 whicli may now be reached by automobile if the rider is not 

 particular as to the smoothness of road travel. 



For unimproved camp sites an annual rental on the basis of 

 twenty-five dollars per acre is charged. With the permit each 

 occupant will be required to furnish a bond in the sum of five 

 hundred dollars to insure faithful compliance with the conditions 

 required to be observed by the permit. 



In addition to the camp sites under permit there are additional 

 areas where transients may camp for a night or two. 



A sample copy of the permit form is printed herewith for the 

 information of the public as well as a map showing the situation 

 of the camp. 



Further information and application forms for the permits 

 may be obtained from the Superintendent of Forestry, P. O. Box
