JOURNAL OF DEREK RAYNEDay 6 (not sure)
So used to the pain of my hands and feet that I no longer even feel them. Have, indeed, ended up crawling sometimes. My other cuts are infected as well. I�ve lost track of time again. I don�t know if the ledge was 2 nights ago or 3. I only hope I�ve not reversed course again. I can�t remember most of yesterday or last night at all. Am out of purification tablets and the canteen is gone. So hungry this morning I ate grass and tried a piece of the leather from my pack, but couldn�t chew it enough to risk swallowing it. Tore 5 pp from this journal and managed to get them down, but no water other than the rain and the mud puddles. The climb is always upward now. The cliffs are rather inviting. Then I could sleep.
