page 496 note 1 The earth-pillars (‘Erd-pyramiden’) of the neighbourhood are, or have been, severally capped with blocks of quartz-porphyry, but I think the finer materials which constitute them are more largely derived from the tuffs (clastic rocks) than from the crystalline rocks; both those of the Finsterbach near Lengmoos, and the group lower down near Bozen.
