The weather had socked us into camp yesterday -- pouring rain and almost zero visibility for over 24 hours. Fortunately, the rain let up today, allowing us to take one more sediment core from Easy Lake. The lake was named such because of how easy it was to get to the shoreline, map the lake, and obtain the sediment core.
After we completed the sediment core, we spent the remainder of the day packing up Base Camp 1. I cannot believe that it has been almost a week in the field. So many experiences, so many memories.
Those who know me, know how I do not like my picture taken. However, this is one I will share. We were hiking across the glacier and there were several moulins that we needed to hop over. Avy told me that there was not a better place to get water; so I took an opportunity. I will never forget that hike. So very powerful.
Good night Base Camp 1....
