We travelled generally East-North-East for twenty miles over spinifex and undulating sand-hills, without seeing any water.

We turned east for ten miles to a range, which we found to be covered with spinifex.

Everywhere nothing else was to be seen; no feed, destitute of water; while a few small gullies ran out of the low range, but all were dry.

Another range about twenty-four miles distant was the extent of our view, to which we bore.

At twenty miles, over red sandy hills covered with spinifex and of the most miserable nature, we came to a narrow samphire flat, following which south for two miles, we camped without water and scarcely any feed.
