The transition from land to sea ice, on our way to Akuliaqattak (Eric Point) where the met station will be installed.

On our way to Akuliaqattak we pass a cabin with windows protected from Polar bears.

Base Camp

Glen’s bivi sack (he’s basically Polar bear bait).

Breakfast

An iceberg in Eglinton Fjord.

At the top of Akuliaqattak where the met station was installed.

Everybody working on something!

Kelly calls on a satellite phone to test data transmission between the met station and the Internet. It works!

A side trip to Sam Ford Fjord on our way home.

The surface snow and ice in the fjord is melting!

The tall face on the right is 4000’ high (it is still ~2 km away).
