7. Besides the main Dividing Range, there are also other ranges extending in different parts of the country, many of them being spurs of the main chain. The highest peaks are found in the Dividing Range and its offshoots, between St. Clair and the eastern boundary of Victoria. The chief of these are:—The Bogong Range, 6508 feet; Mount Feathertop, 6303 feet; Mount Hotham, 6100 feet; Cobberas, 6025 feet; Mount Cope, 6015 feet; Mount Bulla, 5911 feet; Gibbo Range, 5764 feet; Mount Wills, 5758 feet; Mount Howitt, 5715 feet; Mount Buffalo, 5645 feet; The Twins, 5575 feet; Mount Tamboritha, 5381 feet; Mount Wellington, 5363 feet; Mount Cobbler, 5342 feet; and Mount Kent, 5129 feet. So far as is at present known by observation, there are at least 15 peaks over 5000 feet high, and 15 between 4000 and 6000 feet. There are, however, many peaks above 4000 feet whose actual heights have not yet been determined.
