A field season photo wrapup
| Last one out Friday lunchtime, we pulled our equipment out of the drillsite camp and took it to the runway. KZ took this photo as we left the drillsite. |
 |
| Post-drill dance Cossacks? Well, a Pole and an Italian... doing a dance on either side of the drill, after we'd powered down Friday morning (after the reporter left). |
 |
| Rainbow conclusion A group shot taken at the end of the drilling tests, after midnight early Friday, had an appropriate backdrop. :) |
 |
| Icy core We reached a final depth of 3.22m. Here's the last core taken out, full of ice. We lost time on Tuesday and Wednesday trying to use a non-coring bit. |
 |
| Ground truth hole Originally dug for sandbags for ballast, we used this hole to drill with commercial high-powered equipment to get an idea of what the DAME drill was likely hitting nearby. Note the slumping due to permafrost melting, under the previous active-layer boundary. |
 |
| Repeater duty It was usually my job to refill and maintain the communications repeater on Haynes Ridge that kept us in touch with base camp and the outside world. Here's my ATV viewed from the repeater, one foggy evening. |

And I love the photo of the, um dancing Cossacks. The rainbow group shot one is pretty darn awesome, too! :-)
