The Meliau Basin rim, with one of its highest points in the foreground, stretches to the horizon. Sandstone beds are partly exposed near the top of the escarpment. Small-crowned upper montane (or mossy) forest is developed over the summit area and upper slopes. An image from the book Maliau Basin: Sabah's Lost World.
