Source: L. Akana Collection - The white clouds of Molokaʻi are described as a woman in this mele. Kamalō is short for Kamaloʻo (the dry place), on the lee side of the island. Legend says there is a lava tube that connects Kamalō Gulch to Pelekunu valley on the north coast that was inhabited by the famous moʻo of Molokaʻi. Hoʻolua is the northeast wind of Hālawa valley. © Naukilo Productions
