The south end of the Foothills. 
Before leaving the discussion of this locality, mention must he made of the 
specimens brought back by Dr. Wilson from 30 miles further south, close by the 
Koettlitz Glacier. From the specimens themselves (834-853) and from what lie has 
reported about their occurrence in the field, it would appear that the Foothills are 
composed of the rocks of the metamorphic series. 
Darne Inlet. Latitude 80° S. Longitude 1 G 1° E. (about). 
At the entrance to this inlet, Lieutenant M. Barne collected fragments of 
granite, gneiss and mica-schist (734) from a scattered moraine. These fragments must

have been derived from the mass of land lying south of the inlet and quite 170 miles 
south of the Blue Glacier. 
The Northern Foothills. 
The Northern Foothills occupy an almost rectangular area about 12 miles long 
and 10 miles broad. The Northern Foothills are separated from the Southern 
Foothills by the Blue Glacier, which occupies a deep and rather steep-sided valley from 
5 to G miles across. They appear to be mainly composed of crystalline limestone. 
The west side of the foothills, on the north side of the Blue Glacier. 
Two miles north of G 4 , the limestone is similar to that of J 1( G miles distant 
(Fig. 12). Here, however, the dominant structure-planes strike N.N.E.-S.S.W.,
