Humu‘ula Sheep Station

For 100 years these pastures were filled with sheep, and that historical legacy is marked by nearby rock walls stacked by Japanese laborers and the Humu‘ula Sheep Station at the corner of Saddle and Mauna Kea Access Rds. By 1963, the station was no longer used for sheep, but did support cattle operations – which proved to be more commercially viable – until 2002.
