Kidd’s design on Hualalai

A lava mound between the eighth green and ninth tee provides a striking point of orientation. A 2018 maintenance profile describes views toward Mauna Kea, grass-covered lava fields and the Pacific, revealing the course’s position between volcanic upland and ocean rather than on the shoreline itself.²
