L.21. P.4 Wills & Healy, I thought I'd take a chance. It probably may have been better, and I suspect it was quite a bit shorter. The beginning was pretty low swampy, but at length it worked out to dry ground & up onto a ridge where the Wills/Healy track rejoined it. A moment later we were once more looking at the Paluma about 100 feet below. At that place there seems (thru the foliage) to be a junction of two streams one with green water the other clear or bluish. But then we got out below--we were so shut in by flood plain vegetation we could see nuthing. We walked for [illegible] mile along beach which reaches round the entire field from E-wt NS at the foot of the Donaldson range. And a few hundred yards farther climbed the hill to Healy's camp. I'm very pleased with the day's work that the two Kiwi boys who carry the majority of the radio loads (110 lbs) were pretty tired. Our two locals suddenly got scared of something about 5 o'clock & decided to go home. We had a shown at 5 but thick blueitus is quite clear, it's rugged parts bearing NE, Save r the jags are both ascended. I believe I saw glimpses of the peak Stuckless Tks. due E. too. All this last from Healy's look-out clearing below campo. Had a glorious dip in the mire. The barometer (at 6.30 pm) reads - 120 m. Zero meters is set at 74.5 Monday July 6. Morning barometer (6.20 am) 120 mm. Light rain all night. Saw visible NW from here, but forested turned considerably--very precipitous! The Stuckless hills (that must have been cloud last night). Rain up a little.
