Staircase goes down

Jonathan on the staircase.

Again, a busy day packing in camp. The big task of the day was to free the staircase from ice encapsulating some of the legs an taking down the staircase. The parts where places on a Nansen sledge at the bottom of the entrance ramp and pulled up with a skidoo. It went really well thanks to the combined effort of Sverrir, Sepp, Josephine, Louise, Jonathan and Sune.

What we did today:

1. Took down staircase in drill trench.
2. Took down logger calibration rig.
3. Packed spare kitchen items in garage tent.
4. Built pallet with staircase parts.
5. Worked on press release for all partner nations.

Weather today: Overcast the whole day with periods with light snow. Wind between 1 kt and 9 kt from turning from SW to NE and temperatures between -8°C and -4°C.
