(National Endowment.)

Class I.

Situated forty-two miles from Napier and forty-seven
miles from Taihape, on the main coach road from Napier
to Moawhango, in the Inland Patea District. The runs
occupy, for the most part, the eastern slopes of the Kaweka
Range, which is a lesser range of mountains than the Rua-
hine, and separated from the latter by the Ngaruroro
River, which forms the southern boundary of Run No. 14.
The altitude of these runs varies from about 2,500 ft. to
5,400 ft. above sea-level. The land comprises, for the most
part, open rugged and broken country, with patches of
stunted black-birch forest in the gullies and on hill slopes.
The soil is of a light pumicy character, on slate rock, sand-
stone, and in some cases gravel. The exposed surfaces of
the tops of the ridges and spurs are wind-worn, and bare
of vegetation. Both runs are well watered by tributaries
of the Tutaekuri and Ngaruroro Rivers.

Commissioner of Crown Lands.
