or sometimes the guests ask them to do cocking for them, but if the travellers take along with them the fish or some fresh meet to be grilled or fried they can do it by
themselves.
3.3 Hills
Some of the tourists who spend their holidays in Namo Karang usualy use their time half for swimming and half for hiking. As the fact it can be understood
that the area or the land arround the river of Namo Karang are full of hills. And it is very good for hiking and also a place for cross country.
It has been noted that there are different types of mountains, plains, and plateaus. The same is true of hills: they, too, possess individuality. While such
regions as Karo Highland and the area around Namo Karang are both hilly, the hills differ sufficiently in shape and arrangement to provide a different cast to the
particular surface configuration, even before we consider the changes brought about by their differing utilization by man.
In some sections of the location, the form and pattern of the hills reflect direct and strong and black forest. Forexample, much of the hill country of Jandi
and Kidupen are are full of big and old trees. As weathering and erosion have worked on these materials, the hard-soil portions have produced ridges and the
soft-soil portions have become narrow lowlands. The result is a hill country comprised of nearly parallel ridges and valleys with—the hill country resembles a
series of huge marching trees. In an area of this sort, the pattern of land use is belted—strips of agricultural land occupy the valleys and strips of forest, the
ridges. Travel is easy in the valleys, but difficult across the ridges; only where

streams have cut narrow gaps, or passes, through the ridges is travel easy from one valley to another.
The patterns of many hill regions show no immediate control by the underlying structure. This is particularly true where the soil are horizontal or
where the underlay is comprised of masses of relatively homogeneous soil. The hill country of the villages Kidupen and Jandi are the result of valley cutting by
numerous streams. So many streams have become established and have cut their valleys that virtually all the land between them has been sharpened into steep-
sided ridges. The stream patterns are treelike and hence so are those of the valleys. The ridges between the valleys merely fill in the areas between the trunks and
branches of the streams. The foregoing discussion of different types of hills, or hill regions, is far from complete; it is not an attempt to classify and describe all
hill types which might be distinguished. The chief point is that within the many hill regions of the villages Kidupen and Jandi, there are several types of expres-
sion and condition, each having direct reflections in the form of the land and in the use of the land by man, and each adding another element to the infinite variety
of the face of the earth.
