(c) Event 25

Field work was restricted to areas within the Quartermain Mountains. The initial field work within Kennar Valley was carried out on outcrop within walking distance of the main camp.

Finger Mountain camp was on the saddle directly below and to the southeast of Finger Mt summit. On the initial helicopter flight in, a food dump was laid on the saddle. Camp was established on foot from Kennar Valley and on completion a return to the main Kennar Camp was also made on foot.

Work in the cirque valleys between Kennar Valley and Tabular Mountain was done on foot.

Two further areas (Mt Feather and Upper Beacon Valley) worked, were visited by helicopter.
