-It is difficult to:visualise Colin Putt sallying forth on a long trip without his trusty "Puttmobile", but even this vehicle has its limitations, for it has never been known to become airborne for more than a few seconds (on the roughest roads in the State) nor to become completely amphibious beyond fa-ding a few doubtful crossings of lesser streams. Colin, however, we are pleased to say, has no such limitations for soon he will have to become airborne and cross some unimo-wn. rivers.
-About 5th June he putts off for Netherlands Hew Guinea, and with five colleagueE from the New Zealand Alpine Club will make an r ttempt to climb Mt. CIrstensz, a 16,500 footer, the top 3,000 being composed of glaciers and snow. They will fly from Sydney to Hollandia, where their gear and supplies, mostly from bw Zealand, will be repacked into smaller packages covered with plastic of course!) and hessian for air drops.

 Using Ilaga station as a base the party will fly in by Cessnas its food and equipment, weighing about three-quarters of a ton, to the expedition area in the Carstensz Mountains, named after the Dutch explorer Jan Carstensz, who first sighted them in 1623. Highest peak in the mountains is 16,503 feet high.
-The party hopes to find two or three oomparatively level pieces of groand, and drop their equipment on to these without parachutes from about 15 feet.
-At Ilaga the party will hire a train of about 15 natives and walk the 60 miles through unmapped country to the Carstensz Mountaine. This iS expected to take a week. The expedition will leave the natives about the 10,000 to 15,000 feet level to return to the Valley as the cold prevents the natives operating above this level.
-The mountain area in which the party will climb is shaped lie a horseshoe and it hopes to make its base in the middle so it can reach any sections of the mountins in the shortest time.
