Thour Recess

Herbert Daniel Gebauer - 06/01/2018

Uphill from the –>Thour Clefts and nearly at the top of our ascent we refreshed ourselves by a halt under a cool dropping rock, which overhung a recess near the path, and down a cleft in which a small rill of most delicious water trickled, which, as well as the verdure around, and the opportunity of resting so comfortably, was very grateful to the thirsty and weary traveller. Several fine large spreading trees of a peculiar nature, somewhat resembling the acacia, scenting the air with myriads of fragrant blossoms, grew around (FRASER, J B 1820: 109).
