"Was a favorite resort for owls. The owl was a beneficent amakua [sic; aumakua] & would give his note of friendly warning to his master to guard him from danger. He had a great power to deliver his kahu from prison or trouble; he would burst the fetters & lead to safety. The kahu had only to follow & where the owl rested in its flight was safety. Heu is the cry." The mouth of the cave is located five feet west of the trig. station in open pasture on Puu Eo/Kawela boundary, east side of RPG 5228 (TMK 9404:2,3). Elev. about 1715 ft.
