tured on üg. 14, is more connected, soft and low, without pro- 

 minent peaks, but sometimes broken up into crest-shaped hills. 

 Also here it will be necessary to verify the nature of the rock, 

 which is on the map pictured as belonging to the Triassic, 

 though older rocks may occur, especially farthest out towards 

 C. Biot. Here, in fact, the topography reminds one somewhat of 

 the peninsula E. of Fleming Inlet, the region of C. Brown (see 

 fig. 15), forming with its harder rocks (cf. p. 178) a real transition to

the Canning Land type mentioned below. What is seen on the 

 picture is evidendly a narrow crest, not gentle in any place, 

 but without any prominent peaks and broken up by the for- 

 mation of transverse valleys. Connected with the almost hori- 

 zontal stratification is a partition in narrow terraces, which from 

 a distance almost recalls a basalt coast. 



Somewhat different is the scenery around P'leming Inlet. 

 The nature of the generally soft, triassic rock has already been 

 described. On the NW. the fjord is bounded by an almost 

 plateau-shaped wall, the isolated peaks everywhere showing a
