7 .-- Having sent Brown back to guide our party to this creek, which is about six miles N.N.

E.from yesterday's camping place, in latitude 22 degrees 32 minutes 27 seconds; I continued my ride with Charley to the north-west.

We ascended a high sandstone range, and travelled for some miles along its flat summit.

The country was very broken, but openly timbered, and occasionally of a most beautiful character; but frequently interrupted by patches of miserable scrub.

Having in our progress brought Mount Phillips to bear south-west and south, we entered a fine open Bastard-box country, with slight undulations, and which seemed to extend to Peak Range.
