The horses were found early, but as it took nearly three hours to water them we did not leave the glen till past eight o'clock.

This time I intended to return to the ridges we had last left, and which now bore a little to the west of south-west, twenty-one miles away.

We made a detour so as to inspect some other ridges near where we had been last.

Stony and low ridgy ground was first met, but the scrubs were all around.

At fifteen miles we came upon a little firm clayey plain with some salt bushes, and it also had upon it some clay pans, but they had long been dry.
