THE FALLS OF THE YGUASSU
Thirteen miles above the confluence with the ParanÁ. Like the ParanÁ at the Salto Guayra, the river cuts through a layer of basalt intercalated in the red sandstone. The forest of the province of Misiones has a tropical character near the river. The araucarias cover only the higher parts of the tableland.
