From here to St. Kruisbaai and Playa Grandi a hilly country ex-

Near Anthonieberg (160 M.) a hilly country of greater height be-

Anthonieberg; we find there the complexes Tafelberg, 230 M.,
the top of which consists of chalk, and Christoffelberg, with

be properly called mountains; they are the only ones which stand

that cannot be ascended; a road, consisting of sharp prominent
rocks, winds from Savonet to the top. All other heights on West
CuraQao, on the other hand, are only separated by...”
