Took observations and made ready to depart. Obtained latitude: 33 degrees 27 minutes 4 seconds. The Grote River runs through on this side of the Festonneerdeberg peak through a narrow kloof and is still brack there, but the Wintershoek’s water makes it fresh.

Fine weather but hazy. Wind veered with sun; was south-east in the evening and calm.
