with a heavy growth of very coarse bunch grass. Below the plain of Cerro Cagua, were piles of fuel yards; a flowering plant which from a large close head like a giant mushroom. At Vincocaya we struck another large level Pampa which had been lower earth spars like lake bottoms. Here we were close to the train; another herd of 5 Vicuayas. This Pampa is 14,000 ft. alt. The country is covered by bunch glass & small bushes everywhere. It has not changed since leaving 10,000 ft. at Pampa de Arrieros. No large bushes seen anywhere. Saw another herd of 5 Vicuay between Vincocaya & Crucecillo on a rather rich Pampas, where many alpacas also were grazing. Within few miles of Crucecillo alt. we saw another bunches.
