SUKA MOUNTAIN One of the broadest plains representing river grades cut below the up- land is seen west of Suka mountain (plate 10, figure 2). This view shows the accordance in elevation of the summits (b + 1, of figure 7), which are several hundred meters above the lower level grade-plains (b + 2), and are also some 200 meters below the summit-level plane in this re- gion. The broad tops of Suka and the surrounding ridges rise to some 1,200 meters above the sea. TAGANAi' SECTIONS NEAR SLA TOUST In the region around Slatoust the distinction between these three plains is most clear and decisive .(figure 8). There are several places.
