see other page some difficulty in getting the water to boil for the B.P.T. and in the mean time I took some bearings & photos. The bearing are as follows: This was some mountains in the distance bearing 315° East of Magnetic North which looked as though they were on the Meridian of M.G. and looked quite high (14000 m.) Bismark pole 352.8 of Mag N°, one peak seen in clouds Mtn Victoria " 162 " " " Yule " 284 " " Garden on Stafa " 215 " " Red house " 222 " " I took a partial panorama in the section starting at Mt. Yule and swinging to the left. The led them Uerjus Dome & Mt. Danielson. At 8:00 I took the B.P. and at 8:25 we left for the S.E. Peak where we arrived at 8:50 I immediately took the B.P. and then took a snooze. Adamsen & Brass accompanied me while Brand went duck hunting to the two lakes formed by the fusin formed by the circle of Peaks. We returned to Central Peak (Garoma) about 10 where I again took the boiling point the results are as follows 5.75 Garoma June 21 at 11:06 A.M.
