Mark, after the tsunamis, the same devastated views of Waipio could be made, and, to a smaller extent, after each flood, acres of devastated landscape... the big differences is the timing of the devastation... Waipio lands have been hit repeatedly in the historical past, esp near the ocean....devastated repeatedly...
Glinda actually highlighted that flood devastation is quite common for those lots in Waipio.... lava covering the lots now in question actually have had far less natural devastation in the historical past than the lots in Waipio... most of the lots now buried have only had one incidence in historical times....
To anyone that thinks the lava covered lots in Leilani & Kapoho should be now abandoned, Glinda made a very compelling argument to use the same logic to Waipio...
All I am trying to point out is this: Give the landowners time, time to figure out what they may want to do with THE LAND.... They may actually want to rebuild, they may want to farm, with very little vehicle access, as the land owners of Waipio stubbornly continue to do.... they may not, but do not force your desires to hike all over & create tourist trashed trails & social media "must dos" until they have had the time to figure this out...
Heck, this new feature has not even had the time to be named....
