The listing

Fires near this property

19 since 2004

Regional context, not property-specific evidence. The federal wildfire occurrence database lists 19 fires within 5 miles of Mookini Heiau between 2004 and 2011, burning about 216 acres in total. None started naturally. None was recorded as arson. Distance is straight-line from the map coordinates, so a fire counted here may appear on a neighbouring settlement's page as well.
