Aleister Crowley Diary Entry Thursday, 10 July 1902
Fine weather. I was a little better, but the abdominal pains continued, and I felt very weak and ill. I was able to get out of my tent and lie in the sun. I saw a fly, a butterfly, some crows, and a thing which appeared to be a kind of bee; all these animals had, of course, followed us from below. In the afternoon there was a very fine avalanche from Chogo Ri, the snow from which was blown over both Camp Misery and Camp Despair. My scouts [Dr. Jules Jacot Guillarmod and Victor Wessely] returned in the afternoon with a report neither very satisfactory nor very intelligible.
