few more pics



Went on a really fun ATV tour with Alaska Earth Sciences geologist Andy the other night. We buzzed up the road towards Hatcher Pass but it's still not passable due to snow. Apparently the state will plow it only after July 4, if needed. We also went down to one of the creeks in the valley to the south. Good fun. A couple of pics from this outing and from Jo's wanderings while mapping are on the Flickr site. She took a few nice shots of the old turn-of-the-century workings.

I love the timing of clearing the pass, you are on a little different schedule up there. speaking of which how is the 24 hour light treating you? Getting nutty yet? How do you know you are nutty if everyone is?
