Thursday, March 30, 1939. Fine hot rainless day followed by a beautifully clear cool night. Max. Temp. 28 degrees C.: a record for the camp. Teerink and Huls up from Bernhard Camp. Guba left Hollandia for Port Moresby. Friday, March 31, 1939. More or less howery, hot at times: driving rain and ground mist-distinctly chilly - 8 PM. Spent a long morning down the river to about 1 hour below camp. Stream narrows between encroaching mountains and becomes a series of rapids. Some large rocks, tall old casuarinas near the river and big Agathis showing smooth stems in forests of the slopes. The flat branched fir common on gravel bars and along the firm banks masses of slender clump palms leaning over the water. A gregarious araliad abundant with the palms, its narrowly palmate leaves making it very attractive.
