    This abandoned sheep farm on the way up to Mauna Kea bears witness to earlier farm activities. Nowadays this is used by a tour operator to acclimatize the tourists to the altitude during a dinner before heading to Mauna Kea.

    Humuʻula Sheep Station is a sheep-raising area that was economically important from 1850–1900. The Waimea Grazing and Agricultural Company had this station for sheep at Humuʻula in the 1860s, and a few years later, in 1873, a house and wool barn had been built. This area was later bought by Parker Ranch. This area is now marked with an information sign and a few unused buildings.
