Geographical Notices. 371 
_ Passing up the river Hingador the party climbed up two magni- 
ficent falls, one of an apparent height of at least 150, feet, and 
afterwards made their way by an Indian trail along and across 
numerous ridges, running in various directions to the river 
Potumia, by which they descended to the Pacific. The ridges 
traversed by the party were only a few hundred feet in sheight, 
~ I the whole distance from the Nercua 
to the Pacific does not appear to have been more than twelve or 
tains at this point is 
remarkable, and, when viewed from the Pacific, seems almost as 
ted nearly in latitude 7° N. nat ‘ 
It seems that a full and complete examination of the region 
between the river Nercua and the 
failure of provisions, ape by previous pret ii 
ee juacy of means of transportation provide ‘or the party. 
oe Therefore, ate delay of two days on the Pacific, Lieut. Michler, 
.
