41 24. Final arrived from Wapangawa about 10 AM, leaving left at UKESKEO (UKAIOKAI of 1 mile out) on the Shama coast. Had 12 villages consulted to a committee with him, the MACHIA, who was Shandi's last boy on the Fly River in 1936-37. Maka's Land I was here came up to see me. Lionel walked up The following weather in early morning kept me close to camp. Collected in the immediate area over 30 minutes. Mostly came Victor, but a nice Tapajos of the steps, a Cyclophora, & at least six orchids including a brilliant orange & yellow Blandiaria of which I made class of color plates. "Forest" of ants, as of the upper slopes, dominated by an oak made conspicuous by three under-leaf surfaces. Tall Araucarias prominent, a crash of rain Nothing in 125 troops got last night. The parking. All day light. The morning, & yesterday too, heard the level of chimneys down the slopes to ca. north. The cicada Tuesday, June 8: Fine day until 3 PM when mist settled down at camp. Went & tarred with a little after clouds. A few sprinkles with the mist; better if (the sky sometimes showed through) in a clear. Travelling began to round at 3:55 PM; we rounded from them this morning. They do not begin their evening chores with an after-lead, shall not, as on the mainland. Lionel cut a direct track to the top of the first. I heard picks in the rock; he did not carry the onward. I followed an old, very bad native track which circles around the N side of the first peak. In rain (frost), nothing of great a cost. Track very narrow with steep fall, & much dangerous by slipping the roots. Next one fall. One Tommy Gray hat (Shallan) in hope last night. From Bongoronga cut from a low boring. 175 troops out tonight, including a sheet hit will meet him in camp; & we not help set or lose in camp.
