496 C. H. HITCHCOCK MOHOKEA CALDERA 



sketch of the summit crater of Hualalei, with a brief description of the 

 ascent, in the Vancouver narrative. It seems clear, therefore, that there 

 have been many eruptions from the lower levels of the Mauna Loa dome 

 on the south and southwest sides. Whether any or all of them had 

 direct connection with Mokuaweoweo, like those of 1868 and 1887, can not 

 be known, but the description of Mohokea sustains the early formed im- 

 pression, that it represents an independent caldera.
