Explorations in Australia

CHAPTER 5
54/237

Passing this at ten miles, we reached a low spinifex hill capped with rock, from which a remarkable hill was visible, which I named Mount Davis, after my friend Mr.J.S.
Davis, who was a contributor to the Expedition Fund.

Mount Salvado was also visible.

Spinifex in every direction, and the country very miserable and unpromising.

I went ahead with Windich.

Steering about North 15 degrees East for about eight miles over spinifex sand-hills, we found a spring in a small flat, which I named Pierre Spring, after my companion Tommy Pierre.
