A few cypress pines are rooted in the rocky shelving sides of the range, which is not of such elevation as it appeared from a distance.

The highest points are not more than from 700 to 800 feet.
I collected some specimens of plants, which, however, are not peculiar to this range.

I named it Gosse's range, after Mr.Harry Gosse.
