Remarkable Overland Car Tour Through Sand Dunes and River Bar

An eyewitness account from Marin County describes a car expedition by a Commonwealth Development Commission party. Departing Townville on August 7, they faced a five foot water level at the Runtekia River and sandy stretches where the team relied on their own power. After days of progress and frequent stranding, the group reached Mount Ina and endured heavy sand and heat, with speeds near 0 mph in tough conditions. The narrative notes support from local settlers and recalls the arduous journey back to Townville amid rain and mechanical strain.
