Cross divide between Little Blue and Platte River; rough road, musquetoes troublesome. Approximate altitude of dividing ridge 2025 feet. Station at Thirty-two-Mile Creek , a small wooded and winding stream flowing into the Little Blue 24 miles, 4 pm to 9 pm August 9 1860.

Note:  The distances don't compute.  The distance between Liberty Farm and Thirty-two mile stations is only about eight miles.  Burton's itinerary notes are possibly referring to the distance from Kiowa Station (departed at 10am) to Thirty-Two Mile.
