To Saddle...

The team has successfully completed their final core! Good work team - way to shrink the peak-accumulation zone data gap! Evan and Clement left ACT10-C yesterday afternoon with the GPR, camping between ACT10-C and Saddle last night. Before they left ACT10-C, Evan reported temperatures were above freezing and he was wearing a t-shirt on the ice sheet!! Jason, Rick, and Terry left ACT10-C today and are on their way to meet Evan and Clement at Saddle, where they will work over the next few days to install the temperature sensor string and "coffee can" compaction measuring devices. The current plan is for the team to be back in Kangerlussuaq on May 11th.
