Sticky note: "Echelon-shaped foothills - about 6 km north-northwest of the Tembwe wheel - as they are common on the western Tanganyika coast of the Congo state. The foothills are generally up to about 100 metres high, those behind them about 400 metres. Viewed from the lake, one has the impression that this type of foothills could have been formed by staggered brewing."
