We made progress in a fairly good direction this morning, but the outlook is bad again--the ice seems to be closing.

Again patience, we must go on steadily working through.
5.30 .-- We passed two immense bergs in the afternoon watch, the first of an irregular tabular form.

The stratified surface had clearly faulted.

I suggest that an uneven bottom to such a berg giving unequal buoyancy to parts causes this faulting.

The second berg was domed, having a twin peak.
