tlie present track. The West Coast out- 

 let is the continuation ot" the Innes's 

 Track, winch we have already dealt with 

 as far as Barn Bluff, and passing through 

 Mount Farrell, terminates at the Emu 

 Bay Eailway at Pieman River, 36 miles 

 further on. 



One last word. I cannot close without 

 expressing my heartiest thanks to those 

 who so kindly assisted me during the trip. 

 To my companions, Messrs. E. Hawson 

 and Boxall, ever ready to lend a hand 



with the camera. To H. Andrews for his 

 very kind help in this and other direc- 

 tions, and also to the Parson Brothers 

 the packers, so obliging at all times". 

 Then last, but not least, to my friend G. 

 Eenison Bell, who, during my stay, did 

 so much to make it comfortable and' en- 

 joyable. I shall not readily forget the 

 yarns and songs, and best of all "soul 

 chat" which we had during the evenings 

 before that warm old fireplace of the 

 Pelion Hut.
