2 p.m. Calm. The sun begins to break through the clouds. 
3 p.m. Faint wind SE. 5 p.m. Velocity of the wind 8m, SE, snow 
drift. 6 p.m. Same as at5p.m. The banks of fog are still on the 
horizon; the mountains ashore are nearly covered with the snow 
drift. Temperature — 10.5. 
The coast east and north of Kap Bridgman flattens into the sea, 
in exactly the same manner as on the east side of Skagen and at 
Peary’s Cairn, but not with such an imperceptible transition as off 
Henry Parish. The coastline is here rather sharply defined by means 
of an inconsiderable tidal pressure ridge. The beach is covered with 
pebbles, chiefly granite. Off the northern entrance to Fr. Hyde Fjord 
I found a few remains of plants in the ice. The stems were frozen 
into the ice, but they did not seem to have roots in the place itself, 
as the former lay out open on the ice. As there was a good deal 
of glare ice here, there must, I suppose, also now and then be open 
water in this place. 
With a good deal of trouble I succeeded in getting a deter- 
mination of time at 6 p.m., and I also hope to be able to get a 
midnight latitude. This will be our most northerly camping site, 
and we are making preparations to celebrate the occasion. The flag 
has been taken out, and we are going to have a grand banquet, 
consisting of musk ox soup, boiled musk ox, blood pudding and 
chocolate. I am looking forward to these culinary delights. | 
If the weather permits, and we can find the time to do so, we 
are going to drive 15 km in a westerly direction with empty sledges, 
chiefly in. order that BERTELSEN may make a sketch of James Hill
