SiteType: Kaahuula Spring. Pohokaina, Pohukaina, or Pahukaina, a cave of legendary fame said to have a number of entrances. Kamakau: "..cave..in cliff between Kualoa and Kaaawa.....another opening is in the Kaahuula Spring." Spring has now been dammed and the water turned to the cattle trough nearby. It is said that formerly, when the water was much lower, one could go into the tunnel a short distance, but that as the roof sloped downward it soon came in contact with the surface of the water.
