The distance between the two creeks is about 26 miles, but, as I have already described the intervening country, it may not be necessary to notice it further.

I was unable to take many back bearings, as the higher portions of the ranges were enveloped in mist.

We reached the glen at half-past 5 p.m., and took up our old berth just at the gorge, preparatory to ascending the hills on the following day.

Flood had already arrived there, and informed me that he had not followed the creek to where it issued from the ranges, but had approached very nearly, and could see the point from which it broke through them.

That he had not found any surface water, but had tried the ground in many places, and always found water at two or three inches depth, and that where the water was the most abundant the feed was also the most plentiful.
As I had anticipated, we had heavy rain all night, and in the morning continual flying thunder-storms.
