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.
