Windward with Kailua
by ALOHA DEAN
Windward means the side of the
island, facing toward the prevailing trade winds.
Between Makapu Point and the town of Kahulu about 37 miles the
steep Koolau Mountain parallels the highway much of the way. This is the
windward Oahu, kept green by the moisture-laden trade winds.
