Im Back !! This is what we went on Traverse for , to service this automatic weather station at Law Dome.Under this post coverered in weather gathering sensors is a stand of 3 44 gallon drums welded together.So 3.5 meters of snow has accumulated in this spot.
This is Law dome east , 80 odd kilometers from Law Dome towards the coast. This A.W.S didnt get serviced last year .Due to the masses of soft snow last years crew started to use more fuel than they had allowed for , so they turned back. We took extra fuel to allow for this.We used it as well.3985 litres of fuel was used to travel 400 km.plus a couple of operating the dozer , to dig out the second A.W.S that Im standing next to here.
