be traced almost into the dividing range. Tubay River could 
be seen nearly to Lake Mainit whose upper edge only was 
seen on account of the rather high ranges extending north- 
ward from us. Over to the east was seen a high range, 
possibly as high as Mount Urdaneta, and appeared separated 4 
from our group of mountains by a deep broad cafiyon. I 
could not learn of its name, and it may be Mount Legaspi 
or Mount Urdaneta proper. If it is Mount Urdaneta, then 
our 6500 feet high summit peak on which we stood should be 
classed with Mount Mabaho. But the Manobos and well in- 
formed valley people call the round massive peak or mountain 
nearest to Tubay and Cabadbaran Mabaho. From our view 
point it was considerably below us, and we could see Tubay 
directly over its summit. From the summit of Cawilanan 
Peak, Mabaho lies eastward across the Dalahion Creek cafiyon, 
and seemed a trifle higher than Cawilanan Peak or 5000 feet. 
The Manobos say it is quite easy to pass by way of Lake 
Danao in a curve on to its summit. I never went there, 
but since my trail from the lake up to the summit region 
of Urdaneta gave out, I can readily believe that it 
leads from the lake along the densely forested broad ridge 
to the rounded similarly forested Mount Mabaho. The Ma- 
nobos have no desire to go up to the cold moss laden 
and wind swept summit of Urdaneta, but in the dense for- 
ests of a somewhat lower or in sheltered regions they do 
travel in search for rattan, bees, hog and deer. Rattan or 
bejuco and bees wax are their main products of trade with 
the Chinese at Tubay in preference to the Filipinos at Ca- 
badbaran. From 6500 feet altitude, Mount Hilong-hilong 
to the south seems a trifle higher, say 500 feet, giving it a 7000 
feet elevation. 
Dalahion Creek is the outlet of Lake Danao and flows di- 
rectly toward Cabadbaran into the Minusuang River between 
Mabaho and Duros and Cawilanan Peaks. Catangan Creek 
arises from somewhere east of the Urdaneta group. Mount 
- Hilong-hilong is nearly south or a little to the southeast of 
Urdaneta and is completely separated by a valley extend- 
ing clear to the low dividing range which is said to be clos- 
er to the Pacific Ocean than to the Surigao Sea. It has. quite 
an elongated rocky crest, tapering toward the south though
