Short diary covering dates 6th-c.9th August 1827. John Auldjo ascended Mont Blanc on the 9th August. Includes 3 sketches of mountains, a list of the party with whom Auldjo made his ascent, and a list of all those who had made the ascent before.

Donated to the AC by Miss Ida Watson, the great niece of John Auldjo, in 1954. The material had been stored by her mother on behalf of Miss Florence Auldjo, John's daughter, but as both Miss Auldjo and Miss Watson's mother were dead, and Miss Watson wished to clear out her attic, the papers, some books, and a painting of John Auldjo as a young man, were offered to the AC as a last resort. Miss Watson's correspondence with T.S. Blakeney is included in B5.
