Into the Crater THEY GO!



Getting ready for the traverse

August 2: 9 camp members went on an ATV traverse across the crater. Their goals included collecting samples, getting accurate GSP readings and testing the outer edges of our internet capabilities. They came back after 7 1/2 hours exhausted. My camera went along.

There are no pictures of the communications tests because everyone was too busy skiping, checking e-mail and doing instant messaging to take any photos. For a few minutes we had a WiFi network that covered about 16 miles (from the far side of the crater to the communications tent outside of camp.


enjoy the pictures
