snow drift ridge glacier at [1] the western end of the big nunatak. Fine snow cornice along the up- per part of the ridge. Sun was visible from ship's deck attend shortly before sunset at about 3 p.m. Was almost but not quite far enough north yester- day to be seen from the ship. The sunset colors were as brilliant and gorgeous as they were last October. Beautiful rose tint on high snow- coved mountain N.E. of bay. Dr. Hunt examined Pudtlak's eyes as well as he could without instruments and thinks that there [illegible] may be some hope of helping him, if he is sent to copenhagen. Trouble probably due to snow blindness and not to free- ing of the eyeballs as Peter supposed.
