[Explorations in Australia by John Forrest]@TWC D-Link bookExplorations in Australia CHAPTER 5 212/237
Rough low granite hills all along our route, but very little feed.
Passed many clay-pans with water in them. The country was sandy and stony, and is thickly wooded.
Mount Woodroffe bears north 208 degrees east magnetic from our camp, and a remarkable granite hill bore north, which I named Mount Elizabeth.
Latitude 26 degrees 13 minutes south.
Marked a tree F 89, being 89th camp from Geraldton. FIG-TREE GULLY. 12th. Continued onwards about North-East for ten miles, over saltbush flats with water in clay-pans in places, to the north part of a range, from which I got a view of Mount Connor, which rose abruptly out of the ocean of scrub.
