The correct ridge runs South East and bears a faint bridle track in places enabling rocky outcrops to be effectively sidled. The ridge is almost all sandstone except for a few small, grassy basalt patches caused by volcanic action on the compressed sands laid down here by ancient seas. Water is available at two points, Swampy Hole and Gosper’s Hole, the former showing some unusual erosion effects on the cliffs which invited comparison with a Burmese temple. Views are to be had of the deep canyons of Running Creek, the mountains of the main range and the isolated Tayan Pic which is almost conical in shape. |

This western end strangely enough, is the highest part and to many it is the most interesting. Here are the formations and peeks which will belong to the people for all times under the Proposed National Monument scheme. The area under consideration consists of strips of land, of widths varying from three quarters to one and a half mile, along the tops of several spurs. Although of little commercial value because of its ruggedness, this area contains all the notable characteristics. Keeping the tops in their Primitive state will also ensure a protective forest for water supply, and will combat erosion. | This western end strangely enough, is the highest part and to many it is the most interesting.
