Heading 19.436 Air Temp. True Wind Dir. I cannot imagine anything more beautiful. And the air. It is so pure, so invigorating.
Ice crystals sparkle in it while the surface snow powder glistens.
One month ago I never anticipated that I would find ice so fascinating and icebreaker ice trials so interesting, stimulating. I'll never be able to look at an ice cube again without wanting to slice it, place it on a crossed polaroid light table and have a look. I spent the morning on the Multi-year Ice floe assisting with the recording of measurements and the collecting of snow samples. There were a variety of activities occurring for data collection. Ice cores were taken, measurements for profiling ice thickness, and snow samples collected for density tests.
