Re: hiking in cold

sauna
I got there late and had to raise it from 150F to 175F.

I know my stove [wood burning] well enough that with the settings I
use, it goes right up to 160f. and then creeps to 165f.

I skipped out.
I worked on a Denali topo map jigsaw puzzle.
In the AM, some one needed the lab space, but I was amazed how much I
was able to do via memory.

No time to finish. It will have to come back down in fall.


Then 2-3 other guys came later but I went toward bedtime about 1215.

Long day, I miss them.

Best with the cute women.


Just a shack next to a near frozen lake.

That'll work if it's sealed good enough.

Enough.

I think 8 men and women is the
mosts I've ever seen in it.

Mine works for 3 well, four isn't to bad if one wants to socialize.

The Lake is the important thing.


We just got the water system working Monday.

I have a cold tank to jump into.

Snow helps.


The amazing thing which happened last night was our camp helo was still
out. It came back during the tail end of the rain, and 15 min. later
the whole camp was socked in via fog. I mean serious lethal flying fog
(a student was killed in another crash a couple years earlier during an
early season survey).

I suppose with the ocean being that close, fog would be common.

Naw, I think lake effect. We are over 150 miles in land.

Had a nice BLM talk about ANWR this evening.


Naw I passed 200f long time ago.
300f is the target some day. Maybe.

Well, 175 seems pretty high on the top end.

Naw, 200 f.

Heh, we once played a game by stepping on a floating chunk

all tiny pieces now.

naw, our lake is up to 80 ft. deep.

We were in 20 ft. on that lake.

Melting fast.


Approaching 10 PM my time.
Ah, those long days, I miss them.
The sun doesn't set here.

ND didn't get pitch black in the summer.

Had to run out and take an awesome photo of a thunderhead over the Brooks.


walk on the lake
Amazing how strong those crystals are when locked together, but
The ice on the Missouri never got over 3 ft. I saw 2 ft. lots of times.

You want the country to win right?

Why must there be a wiener.

You can't think about losing lest you will lose.
The way to win is not to play.

We call this the Shackleton period with boats.
I remember the scenes in the movie, pretty wet.
Yeah, those guys didn't think much of falling into the water,
changing clothes and getting into the sack.

I think it was only one that lost fingers.

Media.
The guys on the receiving end had fatalities.
You hear less about them.
Remember: you are brain washed. We are all brain washed.

More holes opening up.
I wouldn't think you have much blowing dirt to cause the holes...
Little blowing dirt. Deep lake.

I don't know what you mean. Are there shallow areas in it that cause
the holes? I know vegetation giving off O2 makes bubbles in the ice.

No just open holes in the middle of the ice, not near the edges.

Sounds like some of your research is in the pond?
Not ours.

Busy place?

Really, today.
Barely got a seat at dinner.


> I should shave this evening, too.
How many you got?
How many whats?

Whiskers.

A few.
I'll shave tomorrow after sauna, before hopping on the plane.
615am departure to reach it.
On planes all Th. Can't stop to view cariboo or muskox.

I'll do it once a week.
whether you need it or not...
Archers would do better without whiskers.

!


Where guys are clueless is how many really cute women are in this camp.

Yeah, busy place.

More came in today.

What a field to get into.

What we saw yesterday included a ptarmigan (in the middle of changing
colors)

I like how they look during the change, makes them stand out more so
you can see their size and shape better.

Found out all her eggs (9?) were destroyed maybe by a fox.
Maybe a vixen.

and a warthog flew along the pipeline at low altitude (they are
holding manevuers in the Arctic).

Hmm, I'd think that would be closed air space.

Defense of the pipeline.
