There was also a heiau between Pu'u Keka'a and the Ka'anapali Beach Hotel. The Sheraton Maui has built over it and there is the garage and restaurant and lua site area upon it. I wonder if they realize that? That entire area has been desecrated. The opposite side is the golf course and the old pier remnants. There have been many stories of hauntings there. Par for the course!
From Oluwalu to Honokahua, mauka-makai have been devastated. I know more is to come. There will be a time for them to pay the piper for their actions.
