For this update, we are going to the agricultural fields of Central O'ahu.  The area I picked is north of the Dole Plantation in Wahiawa.  This area used to be covered in pineapple, back when agriculture dominated the Hawaiian economy.  Today, a significant percentage of former agricultural land has been converted to suburban development or is left unused.

Here is my interpretation of the area in the game, featuring the first time I've used the RHW in an update:

The following real-life picture is facing west toward the Wai'anae Mountains.  You can see Mount Ka'ala (the highest point on O'ahu) on the right, and Kolekole Pass on the left.

Let's conclude the update with a zoomed-in mosaic.  Enjoy!
