Item Detail
Summary
Book caption: "One of the most interesting granite domes in the Cape Le Grand group is Frenchman Peak, whose curious overhanging top has a cave right through it from side to side. Although most of the mountain is bare granite there is a considerable flora in patches of soil and rubble clinging to the slopes. Leptospermum sericeum is common on and around the top. The sandplain which surrounds the mountains had been recently burnt at the time this photograph was taken. The blackboys are Xanthorrhoea gracilis."
