In spite of the fact, therefore, that the greatest portion of the main range faces south-east, the exposures vary exceedingly and the climate, soil conditions, and plant formations vary accordingly. This fact is well illustrated as one passes from Bei'gville towards the Mont aux Sources up the great valley of the Please note that these images are extracted from scanned page images that may have been digitally enhanced for readability - coloration and appearance of these illustrations may not perfectly resemble the original Natal Museum (Pietermaritzburg, South Africa).
