Last, but not least

The third and final group of our on-ice team have made it to Crary Ice Rise – later than planned due to the weather challenges we’ve battled with this year. 

They arrived just in time to be here when our first core came out – which was lucky as many hands and types of expertise are needed for curating, processing and caring for our precious sediment in the field.

They had to hit the ground running, moving straight into 12-hour shifts for our 24/7 operations.

It’s wonderful to now have our whole team on site.
