Somewhat different vegetation relations from 
those observed in the general valley are to be 
met with on Mt. Edinburgh which lies in this 
immediate region. Aside from differences due to 
much higher elevation (the mountain attains an 
altitude of tooo meters) profound modifications 
of the original conditions have been brought 
about through disturbances by fire. At the base 
of the mountain much the same type of forest is 
to be observed which is characteristic of the rest 
of the valley. Giant specimens of Pseudotsuga- 
faxijolia are common at elevations up to 150 
meters or thereabouts. 
That a magnificent forest once clothed the 
mountain to its very summit is shown by the 
still standing charred stems and the fallen and 
burnt debris. To account for the fire which 
swept the upper slopes and summit is difficult 
in the face of climatic conditions obtaining dur-
