I thought then to myself, as I did at Rumanika's, when I first viewed the Mfumbiro cones, and gathered all my distant geographical information there, that these highly saturated Mountains of the Moon give birth to the Congo as well as to the Nile, and also to the Shire branch of the Zambeze.
Further, Abdullah told me of a wonderfully high and steep mountain beyond Karague doubtless the Mfumbiro being constantly covered with clouds; and I heard from him of a salt lake doubtless the Little Luta Nzige which had some connection with the N'yanza. These details were, however, so obscurely given, I feared to place them on my map at that time.
The Mfumbiro cones in Ruanda, which I believe reach 10,000 feet, are said to be the highest of the "Mountains of the Moon." At their base are both salt and copper mines, as well as hot springs. There are also hot springs in Mpororo, and one in Karague near where Rogero lived. 30th.
