The situation of the Australian 1st Division on 400 Plateau on the first (April 25) and second (April 26) day of the landing at Anzac Cove. Units are shown in red.
The position reached by Lieutenant Loutit's party on the third ridge early on the first day is indicated. Following his retreat after 9.30am the survivors took up position overlooking Wire Gully, shown in pale red.
The approximate position taken up by about half of the 9th Battalion under Major Salisbury at the head of Owen's Gully is shown. When at about 9am this strong line was abandoned, a large gap developed across the centre of the plateau.
The position of Major Bennett's contingent from the 6th Battalion on Pine Ridge is indicated. This group was annihilated on the evening of the first day.
The 4th Battalion took up position to the left of the 8th Battalion on Bolton's Ridge in the evening of the first day. On the second day, General Bridges instructed small parties on the plateau to form a line along the edges of the "Daisy Patch"; a flat, scrub-free region covered with flowers. The 4th Battalion mistakenly advanced as well, following the path shown by the dotted red line.
The approximate front line that developed across the plateau after the second day is shown as a dashed black line. The dog-leg to avoid the Daisy Patch resulted in a narrow salient, known as "The Pimple".
