the terrain covered by Mr.. Perry is
roughly 700 miles north and south and
300 miles wide, between the coastal
range and the Lizard and Fort Nelson

The unusual sight of heavy fog in
a winter attracted him to the valley.
Exploration showed the valley to be
approximately 200 miles long and
about 80 miles wide. Rivers of hot
water running through, were fed by
hundreds Of hot springs, the steam
from these being condensed on rising.

When he returned the whole building,
the ground floor of which was occu-
