The record — long form
Mahaulepu is the last — the 'undeveloped' that's the South Shore, the 9 endangered that's the species. The cave is the Makauwahi — the 'largest sinkhole' that's the Hawaii, the '6,500 years' that's the record. The burials are the dunes — the 'ancestral remains' that's the sacred, the 'submerged petroglyphs' that's the seen.
The spider is the blind — the 'cave amphipod' that's the other, the monk seals that are the visitors. The '5 million' is the rock — the Waimea Basalt that's the oldest, the '350,000' that's the dunes. Mahaulepu is the living — the 'museum' that's the landscape, the 'last accessible' that's the fight.
The file keeps Mahaulepu: the Makauwahi cave, the 9 endangered, the burial dunes, and the 'last undeveloped'.
Mahaulepu is the archive's Kauai file — the last wild coast.
