Formation and (Icneral Features of Kmveiizori. 



The liiouiitaiii of wliicli Stairs cauglit a glimpse on liis wav 

 up a valley to tin- iioitli-west of the chain, perhaps the 

 Kiissiiuhi A'allev, was probably Mt. Eniiu. This mouiitaiu is 

 illustrated on p. 256 of the above-mentioned volume, and 

 this view, taken tiom tlie west, corresponds fiirly in appearance 

 to Mt. Emiu from the east in the photograpliic panorama taken 

 by H.R.H. from the Iolanda Peak of Mt. Gessi. (See 

 illustration, p. 241.) 



As to the " Saddle Peak" of Stanley, it certainly corresponds 

 to the two peaks Alexandra and Margherita, which stand in 

 a line running north-east to south-west. To any one observing 

 them as Stanley did from the north-west or south-east, tliey 

 would appear as twin peaks, whereas one would be hidden by 

 the otlier if the ol)server stood in a line with them. 



More exact accounts of the chain have been given to us by 

 Stulilmann. The more or less schematic illustration of the 

 chain, as seen from the southern part of the Semliki Valley to 

 the soutli-west of the great peaks, and reproduced on p. 281 

 of Stuldmann's ììook,"'' can easily be identified on the map of 

 H.K.H. There is no doul)t tliat tlie central and greatest 

 inouiitaiii grou]) given ])V Stuhlmann under the name "Semper" 

 is to be identitied with the Mt. Stanley ; hence, the two moun- 

 tains to its rioht, desiffuated by Stuhlmann with the names 

 Weismann and Moebius, cannot l)e anything but Mt. Baker and 

 Mt. Luijj-i di Sa^•oia. As to the mountain called by Stuhlmann 

 Kraepelin, whose sunnnits are barely visible at a considerable 

 distance from Semper, this must l)e Mt. Euiin. From 

 Stuhlmami's point of observation, Mt. Speke must have been 

 hidden by Mt. Stanley, or oidy |)artly visil)le, and easily con- 

 founded with it. This fact, namely, the omission of Mt. Speke
