"Description of Reary's Cairn" "A big snow drift on the east side enabled us to take a sledge to an elevation of about 600 feet. Here it was left, and the dogs fastened and we went on up an easy ascent of loose rocks alternating with banks of snow reaching the summit (about 1600 feet) comfortably in an hour and a half from camp. On the Summit we built a cairn similar to that on the summit of Cape Columbia, in which I deposited a brief record and a piece of my silk flag as usual. The clear day greatly favoured my work in taking a round of angles, and with the glasses I could make out apparently a little more distinct- ly, the snow clad summits of the distant land in the Northwest, above the ice horizon." "A small cairn with a piece of box embedded in the top of it was built not far from the ice foot upon the low fore shore"
