L.21. P.19 and cold. Anyhow as a result of jett[ing] this far we should be able to cross the [illegible] tomorrow. Also unfortunate to suffering from muscular fatigue of the shoulders. His whole neck & shoulders are stiff and painful. Saturday, July 18. Left Sully camp at 7.30 and making really good progress reached the 500 meter sortt [illegible] camp at 10.40. At this camp I had planned to stay for a couple of days trapping but under present circumstances we must of course push on. We got down the steep slopes to Healy's camp on the lower slopes at about 1.20 and pushed on at once down to the ferr half an hour later. The river was decidedly deeper than when I crossed it going in and was discolored to a smelly hue by lichen. The current was running strongly over the shallow places and it proved advisable to make the crossing for the larger piece of cargo at a spot where the water was deep & quieter. It took the boys waist deep or more and the crossing was completed at 2.30. An hour later we reached Healy's south ten camp. On the way down the hill I once more (about the 4th time) encountered wasps and this time in brushing them away was so unfortunate as to break my eye glass frames at the bridge. Being able to see only imperfectly sort of put me out of action. In camps before I have managed a rough sort of repair which I hope will hold together. Barmeta (6 p.m.) 190 m. Sunday, July 19. Left camp at 7.30 am and made good progress. 8.30 Lock's's Len Camp where I stayed before and 9.00 down to the north of the Len. Pushing right on we reached the corner of the Palmer (610 mile marks) at 10.45. The Palmer was three feet higher than when I saw it before. Left again at 10.50 and arrived here at 3.55. The boys pretty tired. Healy & I take turns at being head & tail of the procession we change at each halt as a rule. The high river [illegible]
