1800m comp. The rains which began early this morning and continued until 8:30 A.M. made the breaking of camp unpleasant. The carriers after their trip up from 1800m camp were wet and cold, the equipment was wet and heavy and all in mud humor especially Reed. von Arden and I remained in camp until the collectors had returned from tending the snares and at 9:50 started down. Arrived at 1800m at 11:10 to find things up and all in order. The storm 'clecked' weights of carriers loads and loads!.
