Note 131 — Chapter XXVIII · THE GEOGRAPHY OF THE NILE BASIN

Snow may perhaps occasionally lie for a few days on the highest points of the volcanic Mfumbiro peaks (Sabinzi and Karisimbi), which are over thirteen thousand feet and lie almost within the limits of the Nile basin, to the south of Lake Albert Edward; and there may be a little permanent snow perhaps on the peaks over eleven thousand feet in height on the southeast of Basutoland in South Africa.
