183 April 1st. Van Arcken and Bazzoni arrived from Idenburg. Report river lower and falling, the camp clear of water and very muddy with silt deposited by the flood. April 2nd. Foggy morning, clearing at 9 AM: rest of day fine: broken clouds: no rain. Commenced labelling specimens in preparation for moving to the Idenburg. April 3rd. Foggy to 7.30 AM and some showers later in the morning: afternoon and evening high, broken, overcast: wind NW. Labelling plants and preparing a few loads of supplies etc. to go down to the Idenburg tomorrow. April 4th. Fog to 7.30 AM: bright day: no rain. Teerink, Huls and Toxopeus departed for Bernhard. This marks the beginning of the abandonment of the camp. Labelling plants—a most tiresome job. April 5th. More disturbed weather: broken, heavy clouds, bright sun, no rain. Idenburg beginning to rise again. Wind from NW all this month and last. Packed up in readiness to move to the Idenburg tomorrow. Am 10 numbers short of my estimate of 500 for this camp. Versteegh has 139 trees, many of them from 700-800 m. on the Idenburg slope. April 6th. After distribution of loads to my 21 Dyak carriers and seeing that all were safely tied up, I left Araucaria Creek at 7 AM at the head of the transport.
