Helicopter Tour
On the evening of December 7, we took a tour of the areas where we would be mapping during
the next few weeks. We departed around 7pm and returned at 3am.
You can find the more complete story of the helicopter tour on the
project page.
As for me, here are some pictures at a few places along the way:
We were packed in the helicopter. I sat by the window with my
camera ready.
On top of the "Dais", looking up the Wright valley,
and looking across the valley.
A group picture looking down the Wright valley.
A closer look at the ice falls after we were airborne again.
Crossing a the ridge at Finger mountain and looking up the Turnabout valley.
