Blaxland, Lawson and Wentworth did not make any particularly interesting discoveries during their attempt to cross the Blue Mountains. The only things to be seen were the sheer cliffs and deep ravines and valleys. Their most interesting discovery was on the last day of May 1813. On this day, the three men stood atop Mount Blaxland, and from here they could see the plains to the west. Blaxland wrote in his journal that they could see "forest land all around them sufficient to feed the stock of the colony for the next thirty years".
