The weather in camp is still clear with blue sky and it is a pleasure to work on the surface. The roof on the science trench is finished and sealed with snow on the edges. On the dome the panels on the cupola was mounted and we have continued the work on the shell. The drill equipment has been located on pallets and moved into the drill trench. Windows have been mounted in the drill trench roof and the position of the deep ice core borehole marked from roof to floor. Logging equipment has been located and we hope to start the drilling Monday.
