Alcesti de Righi Diary Entry Thursday, 7 September 1905
7th. September. Dull and rainy day. As we are all more or less sore we decide to stop to-day, but send the coolies on ahead to carry all extra loads on, and come back for the rest to-morrow. Later in the day both the doctor [Jules Jacot Guillarmod] and Mr. Reymond [Charles-Adolphe Reymond] go out collecting Alpine flowers, which are here every where, and in a great many varieties. They come back loaded. I can do no photographs. We hope to have a clear day to-morrow morning, and get a last view of the five peaks of Kinchinjanga, also a panorama of this lovely spot.
