Peace seemed to reign everywhere
Down in the lower Anzac valleys little had changed since dawn. The Australians, overlooking Kaiajik Dere, sent some scouts forward towards the undefended Kaiajik Aghala, later known as Hill 60.
We were now dead-beat, tired and thirsty ... some water which had been stored in tins for a long time was now issued. It was red with rust but was eagerly drunk. We also had a change of diet in the form of honey and mulberries obtained by parties fossicking near Susak Kuyu, gas-helmets being used to rob the hives, several making themselves sick with too much. It was not long before snipers sent the honey-seekers back into the Dere.21
Some had wandered over a mile into Azmak Valley, towards Suvla, to fill water bottles at a farm, so Turkish resistance there was evidently negligible, although in other places any movement attracted sniper fire. One such position was on Hill 100, which prevented any further movement along the ridge. This position would prove a thorn for the Australians in reaching Hill 971 as it would for those against Hill 60 later in the month.
