anywhere on the top of the mount[17]
tain - Mosses, tree ferns, other
ferns, bunch grass, and begonias
abound. At the base of this wall
within the crater strong pseudo-fum-
naoles were active in 1903, and some
(cf. 1908 note 6k)
warmth was rising from their vents
in 1908 (?) Now all trace of the fuma-
noles has disappeared, except for some
reddening of the rocks beside where
the fleages
the vapors rose. Moss on the rock wall
assists in gathering moisture here
and vegetation is rank - I noted
a pigeon-berry tree four feet high
near one of the old vents loci of steam
discharge. Moss, grass and ferns pre-
dominate. The highest point of the
is on the southern side and
rim of the new crater is 260 feet above
the present bottom. & It is part of the
rim of the old crater.
