By 10 A.M. the sky is free of heavy clouds and
it looks most like rain for the afternoon.
North west of Carrigal many miles one sees the
very high and jagged mountains, some of which must
stand up at least 4000 to 5000 feet above the main
Carrigal. Between them is a vast dunality
Country.
The Tertiary collecting ground is towards the west
rising into the higher ground.
In the afternoon walked south east along the track
for 2 kilometers, but the sun was on her and the air
sultry that did not go further. Looking back to the
higher country one sees at least two dunality shelves
falling down into the low country. Farther with
and over the higher lands one which we came yesterday.
The topography looks like this.
