Kamapuna

Feature:Springs, waterfall
Comments:Pair of springs and a waterfall in upper Manawainui Valley described in an article in Maui News on July 9, 1927: "We journeyed up the Manawainui gulch to the foot of the Kamapuna Falls, which have their source at the Kamapuna Springs some four [or] five hundred feet above on the precipitous side of Manawainui Gulch. ... The elevation of the point at the stream bed where the water may be collected is approximately 1300 feet."

The description in the Maui News article matches a pair of unnamed springs identified on U.S. Geological Survey maps.
